Tipperary didn't take long to get going against Galway in the second All-Ireland semi final of the Hurling Championship.
The Tribesmen's full-backs didn't deal with an early ball in as it was claimed by Seamus Callanan who emphatically drove the sliotar into back of Colm Callanan's net.
Páudi Mannion's attempt to claim the ball ahead of Callanan were in vain as he broke his hurl in the process.
Callahan managed an impressive first half scoring a total of 1-5, but after a slow start Galway have come back into the match and lead by 13 points to 1-9.
