Galway lost out to Kilkenny in the Leinster final last Saturday night by 2-20 to 0-24, with substitute Richie Hogan the catalyst for Kilkenny's late comeback victory, while Tipperary bounced back from a Munster semi final defeat to eventual champions Limerick by defeating Cork in the qualifiers.
This will be the first meeting of the sides since the 2017 All Ireland semi final, when Joe Canning (pictured) scored a late wonder point to win the game for Galway. It will go down as one of the greatest points ever scored in Croke Park and Galway Bay FM listeners never tire of hearing the commentary of that famous point by Sean Walsh...
