There was a great deal of sympathy on show for both sets of players in the Munster minor final when it became clear that a penalty shootout would decide the winners.
Tipperary triumphed 3-0 in the shootout after a thrilling game that had finished 1-22 to Clare's 0-25.
However, legends from across hurling expressed their dismay at teenagers being forced into a shootout rather than having a replay to win or lose as a team.
