There were more turns than a spaghetti junction in this Munster SHC thriller, and it was fitting that the biggest sting of them all arrived right at the death.
Bruised from a listless display against Cork seven days previous, Tipperary played champagne hurling and totally dictated proceedings en route to a deserved 11-point lead at the break, 1-18 to 1-7.
