Kilkenny were slow out of the blocks and they trailed early in the game by 0-10 to 0-06. Limerick got the final two scores of the game to make it two from two in the championship. Seamus Flanagan for Limerick hit a crucial eight points from play and points from substitutes Conor Boylan and David Reidy helped Limerick over the line to win by three in a classic Munster final.

Goals from Michael Fennelly, Colin Fennelly and two from current Galway boss Henry Shefflin saw The Cats surge into an unassailable league and just a few weeks later, Brian Cody added another All Ireland medal to his lengthy collection. Limerick just couldn't bridge that gap in the second half. Today, these roles are reversed, with the Cats aiming to deny Limerick winning a third all Ireland title in a row, a feat last achieved by Cody's Kilkenny in 2008. But Limerick responded like the true champions that they are. The most recent game on this list and perhaps the most surprising.
