FIVE goals - by Liam Cahill, Eugene O'Neill (three) and Philip O'Dwyer - backboned Tipperary's victory against Limerick in a onesided Munster under 21 hurling championship game at Limerick last night.

At one stage, Tipperary led 4-4 to 0-1 and they were in front 4-8 to 0-7 at half time. O'Neill completed his hat-trick of goals after 42 minutes to make it 5-10 to 0-9 and Limerick had two late goals by Barry Foley to put a more respectable look on the scoreboard.
