Goal for Limerick!! Dowling shot saved but Kevin O'Brien followed it up.

Browney7

Getting hammered alright. Real pity

Fireball07

Half-time: Waterford 3-7 Limerick 1-4.

Very disappointing because they're not that much better than us. The 3 goals shocked them and tactically, Waterford do seem to be on top. But the breeze was against Limerick in the first half and caused them to hit a few bad wides. Dowling went for a point from a 21-yard free when maybe a goal is what we need.

Only chance we have is if we get a couple of quick goals.

Fireball07

Good start to the 2nd half, couple of points by Limerick. Only 2 goals in it now. They seem to be up for it more now.

But they need to take every single chance if they want to do anything because Waterford are bound to have a purple patch at some stage.

Fireball07

Carmody missed a goal chance and then Waterford scored a point.

Hopefully we can get a goal soon.

Fireball07

Ball crossed the line but Dowling throw it into the net

No goal, pity about that.

Fireball07

GOAL FOR LIMERICK!!! O'Brien again. Another blocked shot followed up.

We're completely on top now. Winning all the breaking ball and everything around the middle. Dee and Morrissey are playing well.

3-8 to 2-8.

Fireball07

It's level now with 12 minutes to go.

Great comeback!!!

Ah bollix we went and levelled it and then shipped a goal. Sounds like a super game

Fireball07

Hat-trick for Stephen Bennett. Damn.

4-8 to 2-11


And the Waterford keeper seems to be having a great game, just made a save from Dowling and he's made a few other saves too.

Fireball07

Carmody goal!!!

Level again!

Yeow a goal for carmody. Fightback and a half!!!

Fireball07

And now we're in front for the first time!! Carmody again.

Browney7

If we can win this it would be brilliant. Ciaran Carey commentating is hilarious. I love the gwan he shouts.

Ahead by 2 now

Fireball07

Dowling seems to be dominating now. Winning all the high balls. Diarmuid Dee too in midfield.

Ciarán Carey says "without a doubt" waaaay too much though. He gets really into it though.


Limerick are winning by 3 now, Carmody got another point there.

Hahaha yeah, I love it.

2 in it and a yellow for Dee. 4 mins to go.

Fireball07

2 points in a row for Waterford....a point in it.

Fireball07

Sh*t, Waterford level it, 2 mins to go.


Can't stand the tension....hope we can win it. After that comeback, I'd be sickened.

Browney7

Level. Win this puckout Limerick

Fireball07

Wide from Limerick!!! Nooo


in stoppage time.

Fireball07

This will probably be the last play.

COME ON LIMERICK!!!!

Fireball07

No, didn't even let it go. Full-time.

Going to extra-time, I think that's fair enough. I think we can do it!!!!

Fireball07

Waterford doing well so far in extra time. Jake Dillon scored the only point so far and they have a free now.

Limerick need to hit them with the same intensity otherwise we'll lose.

Fireball07

Not good, not good. 3 points down, we've missed our only chance. Players going down with cramp and Ciaran Carey is not happy with the tactics.

G'WAN LIMERICK!!


And as I write that, another wide.

Fireball07

Another stupid free and another point for Waterford.

4 points down...and we need to do something quick. Waterford are winning everything.

Fireball07

Another stupid free. 5 points down at half-time in extra-time. I don't know why they changed tactics again because we hammered them in the 2nd half.

4-16 to 3-14 now. Probably need a goal. Very disappointing.

Fireball07

Dowling off and Waterford are 6 up.

We've probably thrown it away. Made a mess of it.

Fireball07

Carmody had a 21-yard free and took the point. Need lots of scores quick.

Fireball07

A fantastic save by the Waterford keeper stopped O'Brien from getting a goal.


And Waterford just missed a golden opportunity for a goal.

Fireball07

Looks like we've thrown it away. 5 point gap, 2 mins to go.
