A mixed day for Shefflin as he fired home 1-2 but then tore his cruciate before half-time and was forced off. Kilkenny still ran out winners by 2-19 to 1-15 against Limerick and Shefflin had played his part as captain.
1-8 for Henry, including the goal from the crucial second-half penalty, that enabled Kilkenny to see off Tipperary by 2-22 to 0-23 in an epic and pulsating final.
