Limerick loss 3 June 2014 Irish Independent 4 June 2014 Speaking after the game Tipperary manager Eamon O’Shea felt that Tipperary need to work on their game management, saying "I believe that we have something in the dressing room and I believe we’ll show it before the end of the season, We have a very disappointed dressing room, naturally. I don’t have any excuses either. I’m not using any excuses. We were a couple of points up and should have finished out the game. We were beaten in the 70th minute, injury-time, so we’re disappointed. As the manager I am looking and saying what can we do to finish a game out where we are there or thereabouts. It is an issue. We are very close to finishing it out, but very close doesn’t mean anything in sport. There are winners and there are losers in sport.

O'Shea also thought that John O'Dwyer's late free had gone over the bar saying " "I felt he had a chance," I thought it was over but obviously HawkEye said no. He got a great strike on it and he was unlucky." "I'm looking forward to the next day," "When you're involved in a game like that, from my perspective, you just try and win the game right until the end. You don't get a chance to get too emotional about it so I'm just looking forward to the next day, "I thought they (Tipperary) did really well today.
