Waterford 1-20
Tipperary 1-17

Waterford will join Limerick and Cork in the last four of the Munster MHC following their three-point victory over Tipperary in Walsh Park today.

Dillon Quirke's fifth minute goal gave the vistors the perfect start but they turned around for the second-half facing a 1-6 to 0-11 deficit.

The Premier County were back on level terms within three minutes of the restart thanks to a converted Lyndon Fairbrother free but Neil Montgomery's 43rd minute goal sent the Deise on the road to victory.

Eoghan Murray top scored for the winners with 0-11 (4 frees and 1 sideline) while Fairbrother raised 10 white flags (7 fress and 2 65s) for the losing outfit.

The result means that Tipp will now face Clare in a play-off to determine who makes the semi-final stages.
