Limerick go up the gears to outdistance struggling Tipperary
Nicky English: Clare drive down redemption road, as Cork again leave themselves shortDublin boss Dessie Farrell says 2023 level ‘will not be good enough this year’
I wouldn’t have any issues with the sending-off and neither should O’Donoghue. Referee James Owens was correct. Like the previous week, Limerick’s touch was unsure but you could see how comfortable they were as if they knew they’d improve as the match went on. Again, Diarmuid Byrnes missed a couple of straightforward frees – to add to his tally from the previous week – but then hit one from downtown and it was carried over the bar.
The most important metric is that Limerick got back on the 30-points standard. They motored out of sight of Tipp in the second half, as has constantly been the pattern when the teams meet.
