Tipperary ease past Galway to book All-Ireland SHC semi-final against Kilkenny
All-Ireland SHC quarter-final: Tipperary 1-28 Galway 2-17 A dud. Tipperary cruised to a semi-final against Kilkenny with ease in the end. A late goal made the margin less ugly for Galway but the performance was dire. Galway's conversion rate was a paltry 45% in a tie where they only landed eight scores from play. Declan McLaughlin mustered a green flag in injury time. At that stage, the royal blue and gold were already thinking about Croke Park. The air in the Gaelic Grounds was charged with a curious electricity. A rain shower and the heat combined to create a humid fervor. In the hour before throw-in, all over the ground fans huddled over phones to take in the seismic shock from HQ. An enormous cheer at the final whistle seemed to send a signal to both sides as they emerged for their warm-up: let's get weird. The first half that followed fit that description. Galway hit four points from play, failed to find a final pass repeatedly and had one clear goal chance for Kevin Cooney well stopped by Rhys Shelly. For all of that, they were just five points down at the break on a 0-11 to 0-16 scoreline. In front of a 16,404 crowd, Tipperary took some time to find their feet. A gorgeous Jason Forde sideline saw them hit the front for the first time after nine minutes and came amidst a five-point burst. Jake Morris's inclination to rotate across the forward line reaped rewards. All of their starting six had scored by the 23rd minute, with only Darragh McCarthy scoreless from play. Outside of Darren Morrissey, Micheál Donoghue was looking at a defensive unit under pressure. Everyone else was watching a contest that needed to catch fire. There was a raft of frees and two yellow cards, for Sean Linnane and Morris. That nervous energy proved contagious. On the sideline, Donoghue and Liam Cahill had to be held apart as McCarthy lined up a free in front of them. He missed, understandably. Colm Molloy injected a much-needed spark. Conor Cooney's ball into the corner looked harmless until Robert Doyle slipped. Suddenly, it was deadly. Like any good corner-forward, he made sure to strike low into the side netting. Any advantage was soon eradicated as Tipperary hit six in a row. The underdog had their chances but they offered them up as well, with Morris denied a goal by a strong Darach Fahy save. The game was done by the hour mark. Shelly started the move, Willie O'Connors took it off him, Noel McGrath had all the time in the world to pick a pass, Oisin O'Donoghue ensured the move concluded with a classy finish. It was fitting of the contest. Tipperary's triumph was built on their ability to maximise mistakes, repeatedly punishing Galway's poor use of possession. 1-14 of their total came from turnovers. After the final whistle, delighted fans took over the field in a pitch invasion. Not even the threat of sprinklers could wash away their swagger. Scorers for Tipperary: J. Forde 0-7 (0-1 free, 0-2 s/line); J. Morris, A. Ormond 0-5 each; O. O'Donoghue 1-0; D. McCarthy (frees), J. McGrath 0-3 each; D. Stakelum 0-2; S. O'Farrell, W. Connors, N. McGrath 0-1 each. Scorers for Galway: C. Mannion 0-13 (0-9 frees, 0-2 65); C. Molloy 1-0; D. McLoughlin 1-0; T. Monaghan 0-2; C. Whelan, C. Cooney 0-1 each. TIPPERARY R. Shelly; R. Doyle, E. Connolly, M. Breen; C. Morgan, R. Maher, R. O'Mara; W. Connors, P. McGarry; J. Morris, A. Ormond, S. O'Farrell; D. McCarthy, J. McGrath, J. Forde. Subs: D. Stakelum for McGarry (half-time); N. McGrath for McGrath (48); O. O''Donoghue for McCarthy (52); C. Stakelum for O'Farrell (60); S. Kennedy for Connors (66). GALWAY: D. Fahy; P. Mannion, D. Burke, D. Morrissey; C. Fahy, G. Lee, S. Linnane; R. Glennon, D. Burke; C. Cooney, C, Mannion, C. Whelan; C. Molloy, B. Concannon, K. Cooney. Subs: TJ Brennan for Linnane (half-time); T. Monaghan for Burke (50); D. McLoughlin for Cooney (52); T. Killeen for Cooney (58); R.

Brave Cork performance comes up short as Dublin find a way to secure win
All-Ireland SFC preliminary quarter-fin al: Dublin 1-19 (1-1-18) Cork 1-16 (1-0-16) Brave and bold, Cork went out of the championship on their shields against a Con O'Callaghan-less Dublin in this evening's All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final in Croke Park. Cork led as late as the 53rd minute and were level five minutes later but ultimately ran out of juice as Dublin secured a place in next weekend's last-eight fixtures. Whether their captain O'Callaghan will be fit for that remains to be seen but here their workmanlike efforts were sufficient to keep John Cleary's side at bay. Trailing from the 11th minute, Dublin shot back into the lead in the 45th when Brian Howard took receipt of an indirect Ciarán Kilkenny free-kick, weaved his way through and smashed the ball to the top left corner of Micheál Aodh Martin's net. That had followed scores from Lee Gannon and Niall Scully when it appeared Dublin had made the necessary adjustments at half-time to wrestle back the kick-out advantage. However, Cork's response was convincing. Colm O'Callaghan split the posts for a second time in the game and then Chris Óg Jones in the 48th minute showed some great stopping strength to point and the visitors were only one behind, 1-11 to 1-12. Cork's rearguard combined well to keep out a Gannon goal chance in the 46th minute and not only did they go level via Mark Cronin, they went ahead when Seán Walsh arced one over in the 53rd minute. The lead returned to Dublin as Paddy Small followed up a Cormac Costello score but the teams would be level another couple of times in the following couple of minutes, Jones and substitute Cathail O'Mahony fisted over Cork's contributions. Scores from Costello and Small gave Dublin some breathing space. The margin was one in the 63rd minute when Cronin converted a free won by Seán Powter but it was cancelled out by one by Costello. A Seán McDonnell two-point free attempt dropped short and substitute Luke Breathnach gave Dublin more of a cushion with a 69th minute point. Dublin started as they meant to go on, kicking four points from play in the first five minutes to no response from Cork. Paddy Small sent over the first couple followed by Ciarán Kilkenny and Seán Bugler. Cork were being hounded out of retrieving their kick-outs but when they eventually got the hang of them, they settled. Dublin didn't score again until the 17th minute by which time Cork had produced 1-3. From play and a placed ball, Cronin sent over two scores in the space of as many minutes and Jones's 11th minute goal came off the kick-out from Cronin's second score. Brian Hurley forced Eoin Murchan into putting the ball out of play, took the resultant kick quickly into an unmarked Ian Maguire who squared it to an on-running Jones for an exquisite finish. Hurley landed his first point in the 16th minute and while John Small responded soon afterwards the Cork captain was again finding space for himself to score a minute later. The teams exchanged scores one after another up to the half-hour mark when Micheál Aodh Martin punted over a 45. That came after Stephen Cluxton parried away a Jones's strike after he had escaped Murchan to collect a fine pass from Cronin. For all their early prowess, Dublin were finding Cork's defenders a more miserly crew as the half wore on. Neil Lordan had his difficulties with Small in the opening exchanges but recovered well to handle him towards half-time. Jones added to his tally with a first point in the 34th minute and Cork were four to the good prior to Bugler sending over a two-pointer to give Dublin a slightly flattering two-point deficit at the interval, 0-9 to 1-8. Scorers for Dublin: S. Bugler (1tp), C. Costello (2 frees (0-5 each); B. Howard (1-0); P. Small (0-4); C. Kilkenny, J. Small, L. Gannon, N. Scully, L. Breathnach (0-1 each). Scorers for Cork: C. Jones (1-3); M. Cronin (0-5, 2 frees); B. Hurley, C. O'Callaghan (0-2 each); I Maguire, M.A. Martin, S. Walsh (45), C. O'Mahony (0-1 each). DUBLIN: S. Cluxton; E. Murchan, D. Byrne, S. MacMahon; B. Howard, J. Small, L. Gannon; P. Ó Cofaigh-Byrne, C. Kilkenny (c); K. McGinnis, S. Bugler, N. Scully; P. Small, L. O'Dell, C. Costello. Subs: C. Murphy for L. O'Dell (45); L. Breathnach for K.
