2019 TG4 All-Ireland Intermediate Ladies Football Championship Quarter-Final – Tipperary 1-13 Clare 2-8

Tipperary defeated Clare by 1-13 to 2-8 in the TG4 All-Ireland Intermediate Ladies Football Championship Quarter-Final on Sunday August 4th at Staker Wallace GAA Club, Limerick.

Match Preview

Championship favourites Tipperary have cruised through to the All-Ireland quarter-finals, scoring big wins over Meath, Wicklow and Longford and finishing on top of Group 2 with a +52 scoring difference.

But opponents Clare, who were runners-up behind Wexford in Group 3, present a threat. When the sides met in the group stages of the Munster championship, just four points separated them, but Tipp ran out comprehensive 0-20 to 1-4 winners in the provincial decider.

How big a scar that latter defeat has left on Clare remains to be seen, as the provincial rivals clash for the right to face Sligo or Offaly in the last four.
