Background

edit

This was the ninth time since 2009 that the counties have played each other in the championship, with Kilkenny winning 5 times. Kilkenny went into the final having won 36 All Ireland titles, 11 titles in the last 18 years (2000, 2002, 2003, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2014, and 2015), with Tipperary on 27 titles, 3 titles over the same period (2001, 2010, and 2016).

The teams had played each other 27 times in the championship, the first time being in 1887, with Kilkenny winning 12 times and Tipperary winning on 14 occasions with one draw in the final in 2014.

Kilkenny had played in 66 All-Ireland finals, winning 36, losing 26 and drawing 4, with Tipperary having appeared in 41 All-Ireland finals, winning 27, losing 12 and drawing 2.[6]

This was only the third occasion, since the introduction of the "back door" in 1997, that neither the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship winners (2019: Wexford) nor the Munster Senior Hurling Championship winners (2019: Limerick) have reached the final. This previously occurred in:

  • 2004 (Wexford and Waterford were provincial champions, final was Cork v Kilkenny)
  • 2013 (Dublin and Limerick were provincial champions, final was Clare v Cork)

Match summary

edit

Officials

edit

On 6 August 2019 the officials were chosen for the final by the GAA, with Wexford's James Owens being named as the referee in what was his third senior final after being the referee in 2015 and 2018. Paud O’Dwyer from Carlow was the standby referee with the other linesman being Johnny Murphy from Limerick and the sideline official was Liam Gordon from Galway.[11]

Team news

edit

The Tipperary team named for the match on the Friday night was the same that lined out in the semi-final against Wexford. Kilkenny brought Cillian Buckley into the team instead of Richie Leahy from the team that defeated Limerick in the semi-final.[12][13]

Summary

edit

In wet and showery conditions, Kilkenny opened the scoring in the first minute with a free from TJ Reid.[14] Michael Breen got Tipperary's first point after 3 minutes to make the score 2–1. A torrential downpour came after around 5 minutes of the game with many heading for cover under the stands.[15] Tipperary playing into the Davin end in the first half might have had a penalty after 9 minutes when Seamus Callanan was pulled down inside the square with the referee awarding a free instead.[16] After 16 minutes Cathal Barrett caught Richie Hogan high across the faceguard with his hurley with Kilkenny being awarded a free which they scored to make it 6–3.[17] Three minutes later Tipperary goalkeeper Brian Hogan caught John Donnelly’s shot from over his crossbar with HawkEye awarding the point.[18][19] Tipperary scored their first goal of the match after 25 minutes when Niall O'Meara turned past Conor Fogarty before shooting low to the right corner of the net to make the score 0-8 to 1-5.[20] After 33 minutes Cathal Barrett was caught high with a raised elbow by Richie Hogan with the referee showing a straight red card to Hogan. Tipperary had a one point lead at half-time with the score 1-9 to 0-11.[21][22][23]

Kilkenny leveled the match with the first point of the second half.[24] After 38 minutes Tipperary got a second goal, with Seamus Callanan getting his eighth goal of the championship when he followed up after John McGrath’s effort was half blocked to scramble the ball low to the left of the net.[25] [26][27] Five minutes later they got their third goal when Seamus Callanan found John O'Dwyer with a cross-field pass from the right to the left edge of the box with O'Dwyer firing powerfully to the net to put Tipperary into an eight point lead on 3-12 to 0-13.[28] Tipperary eased to victory after that and the full time score was 3-25 to 0-20 to win their 28th All-Ireland title.[29][30]

Trophy presentation

edit

Tipperary captain Séamus Callanan accepted the Liam MacCarthy Cup from GAA president John Horan in the Hogan Stand.[31] The Tipperary team then did a victory lap around Croke Park with the trophy.[32][33][34]

Reaction

edit

Tipperary captain Seamus Callanan speaking to RTÉ after the match said "It’s everything we f...ing dreamed of, we put in so much work and to finally get there in the end of it is such an unbelievable feeling, I’m so proud of that group there."[35][36]

Tipperary manager Liam Sheedy speaking to RTÉ Radio singled out his family for special praise on the day of the match.[37][38][39][40][41][42]

Kilkenny manager Brian Cody was amazed that a red card was shown to Richie Hogan, saying "We were beaten well in the final score but it is a huge decision to make, to issue a red card".[43][44]

Former Kilkenny hurler Henry Shefflin speaking on The Sunday Game argued that the red card issued to Richie Hogan for the high tackle on Cathal Barrett should not have been red.[45] Also former Kilkenny hyrler Jackie Tyrrell speaking on the Sunday Game on the night of the final also thought that a red card should not have been shown.[46][47] Richie Hogan speaking two days after the final insisted that it should never have been a red card.[48][49][50] Kilkenny appealed the one match suspension given to Hogan but on 6 November the suspension was upheld.[51]

Highlights of the final were shown on The Sunday Game programme which aired at 9:30pm that night on RTÉ2 and was presented by Des Cahill with match analysis from Brendan Cummins, Cyril Farrell, Jackie Tyrell, Ursula Jacob, Graeme Mulcahy, Derek McGrath and Enda Rowland. On the man of the match award shortlist were Ronan Maher, Noel McGrath and Barry Heffernan with Noel McGrath winning the award which was presented by GAA president John Horan at the post match Tipperary function at the Clayton Burlington Hotel in Dublin.[52][53][54]

Celebrations

edit

The Tipperary team made the traditional visits to Our Lady's Children's Hospital in Crumlin and Temple Street hospital on 19 August before returning home by train where the homecoming event was held at Semple Stadium in Thurles. A temporary stage was set up along the side-line of the new stand for the event with the crowd on the pitch.[55][56] The Tipperary senior back-room team and players were introduced to a crowd of over 30,000 at 8.00 pm, with all the players and manager introduced and captain Seamus Callanan addressing the crowd after carrying the cup on stage with manager Liam Sheedy. The 2 Johnnies entertained the crowd during the celebrations.[57][58][59][60]
