On 17 April Tipperary played Waterford, managed by Liam Cahill in the first match of the Munster Championship at Walsh Park. [84] [85] [86] The match was televised live on RTÉ 2 as part of the Sunday Game presented by Joanne Cantwell with analysis by Anthony Daly, Dónal Óg Cusack, and Shane Dowling. Commentary on the game was provided by Ger Canning alongside Michael Duignan.

[87] In front of a sell-out crowd of 10,982 at Walsh Park there had been heavy rain all morning before the game but the weather gradually improved throughout the match. [88] Waterford had raced into a 4 point lead early on before Tipperary scored a goal from Mark Kehoe in the 7th minute with a low shot to the left of the net past the advancing goalkeeper from the left after a pass from Jason Forde. Waterford goalkeeper Shaun O’Brien saved a certain goal from Jason Forde in the 26th minute diving low to save the low shot.

RTE analysists Anthony Daly and Shane Dowling both taught that a red card should have been shown to Kiely. [91] Before the start of the second half, Tipperary coach Tommy Dunne was initially shown a yellow card by the referee Johnny Murphy but this turned into a red card after the exchange continued.

[102] In sunny dry conditions, Clare scored three goals in the first half to lead by 13 at half-time on a 3-11 to 0-7 scoreline. [103] The first Clare goal came from Ian Galvin in the 8th minute when he deflected to the net after Tipperary goalkeeper Brian Hogan had pushed Peter Duggan’s shot onto the crossbar. [104] The second came from Peter Duggan in the 21st minute, again deflecting into the net after Brian Hogan had saved a shot from John Conlon. [105] Brian McGrath on for the injured James Quigley conceded a penalty for holding Peter Duggan’s shirt, with Tony Kelly firing to the net to put 11 points between the side. Two minutes into the second half, substitute Ger Browne scored a goal with a low shot to the right corner after a solo run. [106] In the 49th minute Clare goalkeeper Eibhear Quilligan misjudged Barry Heffernan’s dropping shot from the middle of the pitch when trying to catch it with the ball finding the net for Tipperary's second goal and they got as close as 7 points before Clare eased to the win by 8 points.

In dry conditions, Aaron Gillane scored Limerick's first goal in the 8th minute, catching the ball before firing to the net from the right to put Limerick into a 1-4 to 0-3 lead. [115] Tipperary had a 0-14 to 1-9 lead at half-time and continued to lead with ten minutes to go before Limerick pulled away to win by seven points with two late goals from Conor Boylan in the 67th minute with a low shot to the net one handed along the ground and a second from Aaron Gillane in the 70th minute, when he caught a high ball before firing tom the net.

In the 15th minute Darragh Fitzgibbon drove the ball low past Barry Hogan from the left after an unchallenged solo run up the pitch to put Cork four points in front. [127] In the 63rd minute Cork got a third goal from Tim O'Mahony with a shot along the ground after a low pass from the left to put Cork 15 points ahead. [128] Alan Flynn was sent off for an off the ball incident with the hurley with ten minutes to go in the match with Cork running out winners by 3-30 to 1-24. [129] [130] With this defeat Tipperary finished in fourth place and failed to qualify for the All-Ireland series. [131] [132] [133] [134]
