Half-time: Cork 1-13 Clare 0-7

Clare’s early missed goal chances look worse now at half-time, with nine points between the sides.

Peter Casey has the latest score for Limerick, while Eoghan Connolly lands a long-range free for Tipp. 33 Mins: Limerick 2-10 Tipperary 0-13

33 Mins: GOAL for Cork! William Buckley wins it, feeds Brian Hayes, and the big man bounces it into the net. Cork 1-12 Clare 0-7

Adam English and Stefan Tobin exchange points. 25 Mins: Limerick 2-9 Tipperary 0-9

25 Mins: Cahalane is booked for holding Duggan and Kelly knocks over the free. There’s a bit of a needle in it at the minute, with the Cork crowd not liking some of Murphy’s decisions. Cork 0-8 Clare 0-5

Diarmaid Byrnes and Cian Lynch knock over points to break Tipperary’s run of four unanswered points. 21 Mins: Limerick 2-8 Tipperary 0-8

22 Mins: Rob Downey wins a ball ahead of Diamuid Stritch, who tries to get it back. Downey drives through the front of Stritch with the shoulder and gets very amped. The Clare man has a big gash on his head, and Downey is booked, apparently for a flick back of the hurl. Cork 0-8 Clare 0-4

20 Mins: William Buckley and Barry Walsh knock over quick points for Cork, before Shane O’Donnell tries to make a goal chance for Clare. He’s fouled and Kelly pops the free over. Cork 0-8 Clare 0-4

Stefan Tobin, Noel McGrath and Darragh McCarthy get the latest points for Tipp, but Limerick still lead by six. 15 Mins: Limerick 2-6 Tipperary 0-6

15 Mins: Diarmuid Ryan defends Shane Barrett really well, forcing him wide and making him hop the ball off the turf, but the Cork centre forward puts it over brilliantly. Cork 0-6 Clare 0-3

14 Mins: Peter Duggan wins a superb ball, stiff-arming Cahalane with the left and fetching it with the right. He can’t quite make a goal chance, but he wins a free, which Tony Kelly taps over. Cork 0-5 Clare 0-3

12 Mins: William Buckley nips in front of an injured Darragh Lohan and slots one over. The corner-back looks in distress and limps off. Rory Hayes is on. Cork 0-5 Clare 0-2

GOAL for Limerick! Aidan O’Connor finds the net this time. Limerick lead by seven now, with points from Hegarty, O’Connor and Cathal O’Neill. 8 Mins: Limerick 2-4 Tipperary 0-3

8 Mins: Eoin Downey does some great stickwork to rise the ball and is fouled in doing so. Tim O’Mahony blasts it over. Cork 0-3 Clare 0-2

6 Mins: Ian Galvin has his second go at goal, and this one hits the post and comes back right across the line. The covering Damien Cahalane dives on it, and the ball ends up on the line, under his backside. Johnny Murphy has to throw the ball in after a crowd of players can’t locate the ball. Cork 0-2 Clare 0-2

GOAL for Limerick! Aaron Gillane notches a goal in the first minute of play! 3 Mins: Limerick 1-1 Tipperary 0-1

3 Mins: Chaos to start with, as you’d expect. Both ‘keepers make great saves in the first two minutes, and both teams register an early point. Cork 0-1 Clare 0-1

Well, Dublin will be in the Leinster SHC final against Galway. Seán Moran reports on a great day for the Dubs:

“The blue wave swept through Parnell Park, as Dublin finished strongly to defeat Kilkenny 1-26 to 0-22 and reach the Leinster final where they will play Galway. It also notably means that Kilkenny exit the championship at the round-robin stage for the first time.

Dublin led by four at the break and had to face the wind in the second half but an immense defensive display shut out the former champions’ attack with Paddy Smyth excellent not alone on the veteran TJ Reid but then, on Eoin Cody as well.

Those efforts were supplemented by Brian Hayes, whose apparently solar-powered energy had him playing sweeper and bounding up the field at the other end – great relieving runs that lifted the siege even if they sometimes ended in spilled possession.

A penalty by Dónal Burke in the 51st minute put clear water between the teams, 1-21 to 0-17 but Kilkenny purchased the goal back with the next three points.Dublin rallied, repelling nearly every attack and winning the last 15 minutes 0-5 to 0-2. A carnival atmosphere developed towards the end with the Dublin crowd celebrating in the sun as their county beat Kilkenny for the first time since 2013 and only the second time in 84 years.”

Here is the penalty that really made the difference in the second half of Dublin-Kilkenny. Very well-taken by Dónal Burke.

Paul Carey gets a brilliant two-pointer to level the game, but his defence concede an obvious free. Ethan Jordan takes an age to take it and pops it over. Tyrone win!

Full-time: Roscommon 2-18 Tyrone 3-16

Roscommon are still in it in Dr Hyde Park, needing a two-pointer or a goal late on. 67 Mins: Roscommon 2-16 Tyrone 3-15

Full-time: Kildare 0-15 Offaly 1-29

Jubilant scenes as Offaly make the quarter-finals at the expense of their neighbours and old rivals Kilkenny!

Full-time: Dublin 1-26 Kilkenny 0-22

A massive win for Dublin hurling, as they make the Leinster final. But it’s a much bigger loss for Kilkenny, who exit the championship, in an incredibly early ending to their summer.

72 Mins: Ronan Hayes gets an amazing score! Kilkenny are out. Dublin 1-26 Kilkenny 0-22

69 Mins: Dónal Burke adds another free to his list of scores today (1-11). Cian Kenny gets a great score, but it looks to be too little, too late. Dublin 1-25 Kilkenny 0-22

Offaly look set to make an All-Ireland quarter-final. 68 Mins: Kildare 0-14 Offaly 1-28

GOAL for Tyrone! Mattie Donnelly gets a layoff from Frank Burns and buries it beyond Carroll. McElholm adds another for Tyrone, who lead again. 58 Mins: Roscommon 2-15 Tyrone 3-13

66 Mins: Conal Ó Riain gets another brilliant point to put Dublin well in front. Kilkenny look frustrated now. Dublin 1-24 Kilkenny 0-21

Three Conor Cooney scores in a row should have Galway into the Leinster final safely. 61 Mins: Wexford 3-17 Galway 1-26

GOAL for Roscommon! They lead now thanks to an Enda Smtih goal. He wins the high ball in and sticks it low beyond Morgan. 54 Mins: Roscommon 2-14 Tyrone 2-13

61 Mins: Kilkenny have made a good fist of things in the second half. but on the hour mark they’re still trailing by five. A couple of bad long-range wides in a row have their frowards very frustrated. Hetherton pulls down a ball and feeds a ball off for another score. Dublin 1-23 Kilkenny 0-20

GOAL for Galway! Jason Rabbitte finds the net to make it a draw game. Wexford 3-17 Galway 1-23

Offaly still have a big lead in St Conleths Park. 57 Mins: Kildare 0-13 Offaly 1-22

Conor Carroll makes a super save with his feet, stopping Kilpatrick’s goal effort. 51 Mins: Roscommon 1-14 Tyrone 2-13

Just three in it at Wexford Park, as Galway continue their comeback. 51 Mins: Wexford 3-15 Galway 0-21

54 Mins: Kilkenny have pulled back well since the goal, with TJ Reid getting the last point. Dublin 1-21 Kilkenny 0-20

Conor Hand nearly finds the net, but Niall Morgan makes a superb save. 48 Mins: Roscommon 1-13 Tyrone 2-13

50 Mins: PENALTY for Dublin! Ronan Hayes is hauled down in front of goal and Killian Doyle is yellow-carded.

GOAL! Dónal Burke buries it in the corner of the net. Dublin 1-21 Kilkenny 0-17

A great run of scores for Offaly, who lead now by 11 points. 48 Mins: Kildare 0-11 Offaly 1-19

48 Mins: Ronan Hayes and Cian O’Sullivan land brilliant points to keep Dublin in front during a spell of Kilkenny dominance. Then Brian Hayes should really have had a goal, but his effort trails wide after a great run. Dublin 0-20 Kilkenny 0-17

Galway continue to reel back in Wexford in Wexford Park. 40 Mins: Wexford 3-13 Galway 0-18

Conor O’Carroll nails a two-point-free, but Seánie O’Donnell responds well for the visitors. 41 Mins: Roscommon 1-12 Tyrone 2-13

44 Mins: Nearly a goal chance for Tom Phelan, but in the end Eoin Cody does well to salvage things and find TJ Reid for a point. Cody hits another point, and Dónal Burke gets a great solo point for Dublin. Dublin 0-18 Kilkenny 0-16

GOAL for Offaly! Brian Duignan finds the net after a mistake from the Kildare defence. Kildare 0-10 Offaly 1-15

Offaly should have a clear run at this one, with Kildare’s Cathal McCabe shown a red card for an off the ball incident. 42 Mins: Kildare 0-10 Offaly 0-15

38 Mins: Mossy Keoghan hits a point to put the gap at three. Ronan Hayes is on for Dublin. Dublin 0-16 Kilkenny 0-13

Seán Moran gives us his reaction to the first half, as the second begins:

“A big crowd in Parnell Park on a summer’s day have watched Dublin avail of a slight wind to lead Kilkenny by four at half-time, 0-15 to 0-11. The home side are worth the margin but may regret 11 wides, several of which should have been converted. Late replacement John Hetherton caused early havoc winning his signature high ball and converting for two points after Kilkenny had started well.

Defence however is where Dublin have delivered most impressively given the absence from the team of late withdrawals, Eoghan O’Donnell and Liam Rushe. Paddy Smyth has played well on TJ Reid and in general, the team are well competitive on breaking ball and rucks.

A couple of goal chances came to nothing as Reid was forced into taking a point after the ball spilled loose and Eddie Gibbons saved from Harry Shine at the expense of a converted 65.

Dónal Burke’s frees have been nearly flawless – one wide – and Brian Hayes’s pace has troubled Kilkenny. With the news from Wexford potentially shaking up things, there is the prospect of these two teams qualifying for the Leinster final should Kilkenny win and Galway lose.”

So the Joe McDonagh Cup final will be contested between local rivals Laois and Carlow. Meanwhile, the Waterford footballers are out of the championship after their loss to Sligo in the Tailteann Cup Round 2B.

Dublin 0-15 Kilkenny 0-11

Kildare 0-10 Offaly 0-13

Plenty of time to go in both matches, but as things stand Kilkenny would go out.

Diarmuid Murtagh lands a massive two-pointer for Roscommon before half-time. 32 Mins: Roscommon 1-9 Tyrone 2-9

32 Mins: Cian Kenny looks to settle Kilkenny with a score, but Hetherton responds just seconds later with a great point of his own over his shoulder. TJ Reid misses a central free. John Donnelly is on for Liam Moore, reflecting Dublin’s aerial and physical dominance. Dublin 0-15 Kilkenny 0-9

Offaly will be delighted with the way things are going in Parnell Park, and they’re taking care of business at the minute themselves. 30 Mins: Kildare 0-7 Offaly 0-12

29 Mins: Dublin have been winning a lot of the physical contests, getting great blocks on Kilkenny’s strikes. Dónal Burke’s free puts them five in front. Dublin 0-13 Kilkenny 0-8

GOAL for Tyrone! Eoin McElholm decides not to play it safe, taking a safe point chance and taking on a difficult finish into the bottom corner with his left. Great goal.

GOAL for Tyrone! Ronan Cassidy seems to glide through the defence, before roofing it brilliantly! 25 Mins: Roscommon 1-6 Tyrone 2-7

Wexford are absolutely hammering Galway down in Wexford Park, with Lee Chin and Jack O’Connor getting the goals. 21 Mins: Wexford 2-9 Galway 0-4

Both games are poised for Offaly right now, but Kildare are giving the Faithful County as good as they’re getting. 24 Mins: Kildare 0-7 Offaly 0-9

22 Mins: Dónal Burke launches a superb point over from his own half. Eoin Cody responds straight away. Dublin 0-11 Kilkenny 0-8

17 Mins: Eddie Gibbons takes a high ball down in front of his goal, but it’s nicked away from him by TJ Reid, who slaps it over the bar. Kilkenny back in front. Dublin 0-6 Kilkenny 0-7

Sligo should have their place booked in the next round of the Tailteann Cup, but things are a lot tighter in Brewster Park.

54 Mins: Waterford 2-8 Sligo 0-24

52 Mins: Fermanagh 1-15 Wexford 2-9

Daire Cregg and Dylan Ruane knock over points for Roscommon, while Ciarán Daly adds one for the visitors. 13 Mins: Roscommon 1-3 Tyrone 0-5

13 Mins: Conor Donohoe edges the capital side in front and then Brian Hayes is sure he’s doubled their lead, but the umpires call a wide. Dónal Burke chips over a free anyways, so it’s a two-point game. Dublin 0-6 Kilkenny 0-4

Offaly have the ball in the net, but there’s a harsh free called for fouling the ‘keeper. 12 Mins: Kildare 0-4 Offaly 0-4

Daniel Bourke lifts and strikes well to level matter in St Conleths Park. 10 Mins: Kildare 0-4 Offaly 0-4

9 Mins: TJ Reid strikes over a free and Cian O’Sullivan pulls one back for Dublin. Dublin 0-4 Kilkenny 0-4

GOAL for Roscommon! Darragh Heneghan continues his goalscoring streak, hitting the net against Tyrone. Ethan Jordan, Peter Teague and Conn Kilpatrick get the Ulster side level, but Daire Cregg edges the Rossies back in front. 6 Mins: Roscommon 1-1 Tyrone 0-3

6 Mins: A second point for Hetherton, and Dublin then turn over Eoin Cody, lifting the crowd massively. They earn a simple free down the far end, and it’s a level game. Dublin 0-3 Kilkenny 0-3

The home side have made a quick start at St Conleth’s Park, with Jack Sheridan nailing an early long-range free. 3 Mins: Kildare 0-2 Offaly 0-0

2 Mins: David Blanchfield gets the first score of the game. Dublin go long with their next attack and the ball nearly bobbles into the net off Hetherton. Meanwhile, Mossy Keoghan knocks over a point, but Hetherton responds. Dublin 0-1 Kilkenny 0-2

Seán Moran is in Parnell Park for throw-in:

“Dublin’s hopes of registering a first win over Kilkenny since 2013 have not been helped by the news that Liam Rushe and Eoghan O’Donnell have been withdrawn from the team. Seán Gallagher comes in for O’Donnell and the returned Rushe whose performances have solidified the defence, is replaced by John Bellew. One other change sees John Hetherton whose aerial dominance helped to swing the match against Galway is included with Conor Groarke dropping to the bench.”

Oh, apparently Liam Rushe will now not start the Leinster hurling clash between Dublin and Kilkenny. That could have a bad knock-on effect for the Dubs. John Bellew is in.

Kilkenny line out as named during the week for their clash with Dublin.

And Dublin make two changes, as Eoghan O’Donnell and Conor Groarke drop out, replaced by Conor McHugh and John Hetherton.

Half-time, Tailteann Cup:

Waterford 0-7 Sligo 0-18

Fermanagh 0-12 Wexford 0-5

Half-time, Joe McDonagh Cup:

London 0-10 Laois 0-16

Antrim 2-16 Carlow 0-10

Down 1-11 Westmeath 0-11

The Dublin hurlers have a big challenge on their hands today at Parnell Park. While they have booked their place in the next stages of the championship, a win today would see them enter the Leinster final as table-toppers, and could also dump out Kilkenny. However, for Nicky English, these are the stages where they usually do not deliver. Can Niall Ó Ceallacháin bring his men over the line after their big win in Galway?

[Nicky English: Dublin hurlers are nicely poised, but can you trust them?]

The main game in football today is the All-Ireland first round clash between the newly crowned Connacht champions, Roscommon, and Tyrone. Despite the Ulster side’s poor form so far in 2026, they’ll be hoping to cause an upset away from home and join yesterday’s winners Donegal, Cork and Galway in Round 2A. That one throws in at 2pm.

Probably the biggest game of the day sees Kilkenny take on Leinster leaders Dublin, knowing a loss would likely mean the end of their 2026 championship. Denis Walsh says the Cats’ once-imperious identity is on the line today.

[Kilkenny find themselves fighting for their lives, and their identity]

There’s also two early starts in the Tailteann Cup:

13 Mins: Waterford 0-5 Sligo 0-6

12 Mins: Fermanagh 0-6 Wexford 0-2

Plenty of quick scores in the early throw-ins in the Joe McDonagh Cup.

12 Mins: London 0-3 Laois 0-9

13 Mins: Antrim 0-6 Carlow 0-2

11 Mins: Down 0-4 Westmeath 0-3

Hello and welcome to live coverage of today’s championship action across the country. The provincial round-robins come to a close in hurling, with Kilkenny and Offaly’s faiths hanging in the balance in Leinster. Kilkenny travel to Parnell Park to play Dublin, with the capital’s side leading the table, while Offaly are away in Kildare. The Cats need a result, while the Faithful County will be hoping for a Dublin victory to leapfrog their neighbours (both 2pm).

Meanwhile, down in Munster, all that’s left to decide is the finalists, as Tipperary and Waterford have already fallen away. Cork and Clare face off, both seeking a spot in the Munster final, while Tipp could foil Limerick’s plans to regain the Mick Mackey Cup (both 4pm).

Then in football, round one continues, with Tyrone travelling to Connacht champions Roscommon (2pm). There’s also three fixtures in the Tailteann Cup as rounds 2A and 2B continue. Follow along for updates on all these games, and the rest.
