by 5–16 to 3–16 in a classic at Croke Park. Shane O'Donnell, a late call-up to the starting line-up in place of Darach Honan, justified his inclusion with a stunning individual haul of 3-3, all from play. O'Donnell hit all three goals in the opening nineteen minutes of the first half and while Cork came from eight points down to draw level during the second half, the winners had a kick left in them as goals from Conor McGrath and sub Honan secured a fourth Liam MacCarthy Cup success for Clare. With 18 minutes left on the watch, the scores were level at 1–16 to 3-10 and they were deadlocked again with ten minutes left as Séamus Harnedy's goal brought Cork on terms, 2–16 to 3-13. But Clare's response was magnificent as McGrath crashed home a magnificent 62nd-minute goal into the top corner of the Davin Stand netting. Clare pushed six points clear, 4–16 to 2-16, before Stephen Moylan’s stoppage time goal for Cork brought a spellbound Croke Park to life once more. But in the second minute of stoppage time, Honan cut in from the left touchline and somehow managed to bundle the ball over the line for the eighth goal of a quite incredible spectacle. 2014 to 2016 — The old firm: Kilkenny and Tipperary 2014 — An encore after the greatest final of them all On 7 September 2014, the Kilkenny-Tipperary hurling rivalry reached its apex with an All-Ireland final display that has come to be regarded as the greatest of all time. Both sides claimed 54 scores and just nine wides between them in a third successive drawn final. As early as the 10th minute, Kilkenny had a two-on-one situation but Colin Fennelly miscued as he attempted to funnel the ball through to brother Michael and the chance was lost. In the 42nd minute, Séamus Callanan’s shot was blocked after taking a pass from Lar Corbett and with 13 minutes remaining. Richie Hogan, with a haul of 0-06 from play, picked up the pieces to fire the Leinster champions into a four-point lead, 3-21 to 1-23. But back came Tipp from that four-point deficit, with Callanan and Paddy Stapleton reducing the deficit to just two. T. J. Reid’s 66th-minute free pushed Kilkenny three ahead again but scores from John O'Dwyer, sub Jason Forde and O’Dwyer again hauled Tipp level. As the game entered its final plays,
