TIpp win their 27th Liam MacArthy Cup
Tipperary secured their first Senior Hurling Championship since 2010 with a 2-29 to 2-20 victory over Kilkenny. Tipp led 0-14 to 0-13 at halftime, but Kilkenny took an early second-half victory after Kevin Kelly scored for the Cats.
Tipperary responded well though with goals form John O'Dwyer and John McGrath, and then rarely relinquished control of the game from there on in. There was time for Richie Hogan to score a late consolation, but a determined Tipp team were not to be denied.
