Kilkenny haven't beaten Tipperary in the championship since 2014...

Few rivalries in sport can match the intensity, history and drama of Kilkenny versus Tipperary in the All-Ireland hurling championship.

In recent years, their clashes have become the stuff of legend.

In 2013, Kilkenny edged out Tipperary in a tense qualifier, winning 0-20 to 1-14, showing the grit and composure that  defined their dominance. 

A year later, in 2014, the rivalry reached fever pitch. The two counties met not once, but twice in the All-Ireland Final. The first match ended in a dramatic 3-22 to 1-28 draw.

The replay, even more fierce, saw Kilkenny squeeze past their rivals again, 2-17 to 2-14, etching another glorious moment into their storied tradition.

But Tipperary had revenge on their minds.

In 2016, they finally broke the pattern. On the biggest stage, Tipp unleashed a ferocious display, beating Kilkenny 2-29 to 2-20 in the All-Ireland Final — a moment of sweet redemption.

Then came 2019, and Tipperary, now full of confidence, delivered a commanding performance, dismantling Kilkenny 3-25 to 0-20 to lift the Liam MacCarthy Cup once more.

These five meetings are not just scores on a board. They are battles written into the history of the sport. Victories and heartbreak.

Passion and pride. From Kilkenny’s clutch wins to Tipperary’s resurgence, each game has added a new layer to a rivalry that refuses to fade.

And now, a new chapter awaits. Two giants. One battlefield. Let the saga continue.
