Loughrea defeated Slaughtneil 2-22 to 0-15 at Parnell Park to secure a place in the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Club final, improving on last year's performance. The victory was convincing and comprehensive. A post-match controversy arose when midfielder Cullen Kileen, who had just been named man of the match by TG4, received a red card for an off-the-ball incident. Cameras did not capture the incident, but the referee appeared to signal that Kileen lashed out at a Slaughtneil player. Loughrea now await confirmation on whether Kileen will be suspended for the final against Ballygunner or St. Martin's.
