Ash Clash Of The Year 2011

Munster Under 21 Hurling Final Limerick v Cork
Suggest just watch from 35.50 to 38.25 on the match time clock

By popular opinion it was the best hurling match of 2011 with Limerick finally taking the title after extra time.
In just about 2.5 minutes, from 35.50 on the match clock, we see a brace of 'cool' goals, a sublime point, a couple of saves / misses and a magic bit of individual skill at the 37.40 mark. You can't beat it !!!
