Allianz Hurling & Football Leagues
The Tipperary senior hurlers made the trip to Mullingar last Sunday where they played Westmeath in the penultimate game of the Allianz hurling league. In what were ideal conditions for hurling both over head and under foot, Tipperary set about their business in very workman like fashion. With good performances throughout the field Tipperary were always in control and ran out winners on a 4-27 to 0-16 scoreline.
Attention now turns to the final round game of the league which takes place in Walsh Park in Waterford next Sunday at 1.45pm. Tipperary will be approaching this game in the knowledge that a win would most likely see them topping the table in Division 1A. The game will be the last competitive outing for both sides so one would expect that both sets of players will be giving their all in an effort to stake a claim on a championship starting spot. There have been 47 previous League meetings of Tipperary and Waterford. The Premier County has won 35 games, The Deise were victorious on 9 occasions and there have been 3 draws. The last six games resulted as follows- 2014 at Semple Stadium, Tipperary 2.13 Waterford 0 .16 -2015 at UPMC Nowlan Park, Waterford 1.19 Tipperary 2.15 semi final – 2016 at Semple Stadium Waterford 1.18 Tipperary 1.17, – 2017 at Walsh Park Tipperary 1.18 Waterford 0.15 , – 2018, at Semple Stadium, Tipperary 1.20 Waterford 1.11, – 2020 at Semple Stadium, Tipperary 0.24 Waterford 2.16.
