Limerick blow as Cian Lynch goes off injured against Waterford

The game was just nine minutes old when the centre-forward limped off with what appeared to be a hamstring injury.

Manager John Kiely will hope his talisman does not face a long recovery period in a hurling championship that will be over by 17 July.
