Summary

The match has become known for the moment when Nicky English smiled after scoring a point for Tipperary late in the second half. Clare accused him of laughing at them as Tipperary ran out easy winners. English denied that he had laughed and that it was just an innocent smile to Declan Ryan, who had delayed the initial pass to him.
