The GAA Hurling All-Ireland Senior Championship has reached its pinnacle, and on July 23, Limerick and Kilkenny will once again battle it out for the Liam McCarthy supremacy.
Limerick is gunning for their fourth title in a row, while Kilkenny, an intercounty steeped in rich hurling history, aims to win their first title since 2015.
Both sides have beaten strong teams along the way to the Croke Park showdown, and Sunday's final will see the two best hurling sides in the country compete against each other.

Last year, Limerick secured the All-Ireland crown by beating Kilkenny 2-26 to 1-31 in the 2022 final. Limerick also prevailed in the Allianz League final with a convincing 2-20 to 0-15 victory in April.
The final will be officiated by Wicklow's John Keenan, making him the first Wicklow man to referee the All-Ireland hurling final in several decades.
The game will be broadcasted live on RTÉ2, with coverage starting at 15:00. Hurling fans around the world are eagerly anticipating this exciting clash to witness who will claim the prestigious title this year.
