Allianz National Hurling League - Division 1A - Round 4
Tipperary 2-22
Cork 1-21
Tipperary went a long way to banish the demons from last year’s heavy championship defeat to Cork with a well-deserved victory over Cork in round 4, Division 1A of the Allianz National Hurling League in Thurles on Saturday night.
This win was built on hard work, endeavour, and savage intensity and even though the team had a lull in terms of the intensity in the third quarter of the game, the Premier finished strongly with Dylan Walsh’s 59th-minute goal the key score for Liam Cahill’s side.
The Premier built on a slender one-point lead that they held going in at half-time with Toomevara sharpshooter Darragh McCarthy leading the way with a terrific display in the first 35 minutes, hitting some wonderful scores including five from play as he ran an experienced defender in Ger Melllerick ragged in that time.
Overall, the Cork players were bested by the Tipperary intensity in the second half for a finish, and though Cork did level the game at 1-17 apiece in the 54th minute, Tipperary finished the game the stronger, outscoring the Rebels by 1-5 to four points to see out a brilliant win that has all but secured Division 1A hurling for 2026.
