WATCH: Highlights as Limerick and Tipp kick off League with draw

There was nothing to separate Limerick and Tipperary in the first round of the National Hurling League on Saturday evening.

The game finished at 0-20 apiece with neither side really firing on all cylinders in their first game of the season.

Limerick started the brighter leading 0-7 to 0-5 at the first water break.

But a powerful second quarter saw Tipp reestablish the lead with Limerick levelling to leave it 0-12 all at the half.

The visitors did open up a five point lead midway through the second half but a fine finish from Limerick saw them leave with a share of the spoils.

Check out the highlights from an intriguing game below.
