Reports from Croke Park
Tipperary 3-27
AN EXTRAORDINARY TURNAROUND in Tipperary’s hurling fortunes capped off by one of their greatest All-Ireland final wins.
Six points down at half-time, 15 points ahead by full-time. Cork were crushed by a sensational second-half display from Liam Cahill’s side.
Their brilliant young forward Darragh McCarthy fired 1-12 in a sensational showing, while his attacking colleague John McGrath hit 2-2 and playing an integral role in shaping the outcome.
Cork fell apart in the second half, outscored 3-14 to 0-2. It was a staggering turnaround. They were reduced to 14 men in the 53rd minute when Eoin Downey was shown red after being booked for the second time. The resultant penalty was struck to the net by McCarthy, Tipperary were gone ahead 2-20 to 1-17 and the match was essentially settled then.
