The Tipperary–Limerick fixture was one of the most significant clashes in Munster hurling history, especially in 2007, which Limerick won in the third game in extra-time by 3 points."Tipperary fend off Limerick Challenge". The Irish Times. Accessed 1 November 2012.

Roots

History The long standing rivalry is sustained by both teams' consistent success in Munster and All-Ireland Senior Championships. Notable fixtures include 1973 Munster final, the replay matches of the 1996 Munster final, and the three-game series in 2007. More recently Limerick have dominated the fixture, with Tipperary failing to secure a Championship win against them since 2019.
