Munster Hurling/Toomevara 5-19 Kilmoyley 1-11: The scoreline tells the story of this Munster Club Championship first-round match at Lerrig, where Tipperary champions Toomevara put their Kerry counterparts to the sword.

The game was over after 15 minutes when the visitors led 2-4 to 0-1, and that playing against the wind.

Man-of-the-match Ken Dunne was unerring from placed balls and found his inside line with regularity.

Toomevara, with giant midfielder Eoin Brislane dominant, never allowed Kilmoyley a look in.
