The clash in Thurles finished 0-25 apiece.
JOHN MCGRATH SHOOK off the disappointment of his late missed free against Cork to snatch a draw against the All-Ireland champions.
Diarmuid Ryan’s winning point for Clare out west at Cusack Park meant this wasn’t quite do-or-die for the All-Ireland champions but they now need to beat Cork next week. Limerick brought plenty of green all around the town and terraces and they bellowed when their heroes came back to level at 0-6 apiece with three points on the trot. Two of those came from Cathal O’Neill finding pockets of space drifting away from Ronan Maher, who was trying to drop to create an extra man.
Patrick ‘Bonner’ Maher’s work-rate forced two frees for Gearóid O’Connor, who slotted six in the first half. Tipp’s shot selection was malfunctioning but they managed to weather the Limerick storm and clip settling scores after Patrick Maher’s pickpocket act to win a free for O’Connor and Kehoe’s great pick-out of McGrath in space.
