Limerick produced the best performance from any hurling team so far this season, looking back to their very best in a 3-26 to 1-16 win over Cork at the Gaelic Grounds in the Munster SHC.
Kyle Hayes was named as the man of the match, while Cian Lynch and Aaron Gillane shone, with the latter scoring a stunning early goal.
After the match, the Limerick fans tried their best to goad Cork legend Dónal Óg Cusack, who was part of the RTÉ panel at the game.
