REPEAT PAIRINGS IN HURLING SEMI-FINALS
The All-Ireland semi-finals will be a repeat of last year, with defending champions,
Limerick taking on Galway in Croke Park on Saturday week, followed the next day by
Kilkenny v Clare, also in Croke Park.
Galway booked their semi-final place with a two-point win over Tipperary in the quarter-final while Clare had eighteen points to spare over Dublin in the other quarter-final.
Limerick beat Galway by three points (0-27 to 1-21) in last year’s semi-final, having
beaten them by the same amount in the 2020 semi-final also. Kilkenny beat Clare by 2-26 to 0-20 in last year’s semi-final.
Limerick are bidding to reach the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship Final for a
fourth successive year and the fifth time in six seasons. Galway were last in the final in 2018, Kilkenny were in last year’s final, and Clare last reached the final in 2013.
