Kieran Lynch and David Mohan
Two All-Ireland semi-finals and two absolute crackers with Cork joining Clare in the 21 July final.
A quite wonderful second-half display saw the Rebels end Limerick's hopes for a fifth straight Liam MacCarthy Cup triumph.
We hope you enjoyed it but that's all from us for now.
Thanks for your company.

Who would have predicted a Clare vs Cork final?
A repeat of 2013 and I'm just hoping for a similar result!

Paul Murphy
Four-time All-Ireland winner with Kilkenny on BBC Sport NI

He is a man a lot of people around the country would love to see win an All-Ireland medal at the end of his career at some stage.
Clare people wouldn't want it, but if there is any man deserving of an All-Ireland medal it is Patrick Horgan.

The Limerick defence changed three times with who was marking him [Brian Hayes] but they couldn't handle him.
He was a thorn all day and he is so direct. I love what he does, as soon as he gets up his heads up to see what's on and nine times out if ten he is taking on his man, drawing frees and making defenders make choices.

Cork were phenomenal, that is one of the best games of hurling I have ever seen.
They have served up between them two of the best games of the year. Limerick deserve huge credit as well, like the champions they are they would not go away but Cork just threw the kitchen sink at Limerick.

I'm lost for words, I didn't see it coming at all!
The three of us backed Limerick and to be honest at half-time I thought Limerick would put away five or six points but fair play to Cork they came out and tore into the game and kept pulling away.
Limerick 0-29 Cork 1-28
Brian Hayes picks up the man-of-the-match award and it would be hard to disagree. His goal after 18 minutes proved the difference in the end, but he contributed so much more.
Robert Downey was a rock for Cord at centre-back, Darragh Fitzgibbon a colossus, while Declan Dalton, Shane Barrett and Alan Connolly had stormers – they all did.
Limerick will reflect on missed opportunities with 13 wides and a couple of big goal opportunities.
It was hard to think today could have matched yesterday's drama, but it did. What a weekend of hurling we have been treated to.

A weekend that promised so much, but it delivered it in spades.
Limerick to their credit died with their boots on, they were seven points behind at one stage and clawed their way back. They had a few chances which could have made it even more interesting at the death, but Cork earned it.
FT: Limerick 0-29 Cork 1-28
Limerick's 'Drive for Five' is over. Cork have found the reserves to repeat their win over their neighbours in Munster, but this is the one that really counts.
It's a wild scene in Croke Park. The Cork fans are singing and dancing as Limerick supporters stand stunned.
It's Cork who will face Clare in the final, a repeat of the 2013 decider.

I think Brian Hayes is my Man of the Match, he has worked tirelessly all day, he has been a major threat and he has had a major impact in the game.
FT: Limerick 0-29 Cork 1-28
It's all over and Cork have seen it out. What a second half from the Rebels.
Limerick 0-29 Cork 1-28
Mark Coleman's free drops short, but Limerick can't work it upfield. Cork are almost there but Limerick have a free and an opportunity to go long.
Limerick 0-29 Cork 1-28

There is still enough time for anything to happen!

Limerick won't go away and they now have momentum.
Limerick 0-29 Cork 1-28
Cork free. Two minutes of added time left and they will milk every second off the clock they can.
Limerick 0-29 Cork 1-28
Cork could have put it away as a Shane Barrett shot comes down off the post but Horgan can't finish. It's frantic.
Limerick 0-29 Cork 1-28
Shane O'Brien shoots wide and the Cork crowd react as though as it's a score. We are into four minutes of added time.
Limerick 0-29 Cork 1-28
Adam English with a beauty and Gearoid Hegarty with his first of the day. This is going to be a thrilling finish.
Limerick 0-26 Cork 1-28

I imagine Limerick need a goal, five points is really hard to claw back from just points alone.
Limerick 0-27 Cork 1-28
Shane O'Brien on target as Limerick get back to within four. Robbie O'Flynn replaces Seamus Harnedy who comes off to a huge reception from the Cork crowd.
