All-Ireland SHC final recap: Clare 3-29 Cork 1-34 (AET)
The Story So Far
Afternoon all, the sense of anticipation around the capital is at a pitch we haven't seen for a few years on All-Ireland final day as Cork and Clare fans spill out out from the pubs of the city, as far away from Croker as Baggot Street.
It's a repeat of the anarchic 2013 All-Ireland final, when Clare powered home in a replay to claim their fourth title. They haven't been back to a decider since.
Cork, proud member of hurling's Big Three, for so long at the very top of the roll of honour, are seeking to end their longest ever drought in the All-Ireland hurling championship, bridging a gap back to 2005 when Seán Óg Ó hAilpín lifted Liam MacCarthy after their 30th title.
We'll take you through the entirety of the day from the build-up, to throw-in, to the streamers being swept away from the pitch at Jones Road.
Cork: Patrick Collins; Niall O'Leary, Eoin Downey, Seán O'Donoghue; Ciarán Joyce, Robert Downey, Mark Coleman; Tim O'Mahony, Darragh Fitzgibbon; Declan Dalton, Shane Barrett, Séamus Harnedy; Patrick Horgan, Alan Connolly, Brian Hayes.

There's plenty of reading on site to get you in the mood for this afternoon's action, not least this piece from RTÉ Sport's Donagh McGrath on Cork stalwart Patrick Horgan.
With the year's catching up on Hoggie, this could be the last chance he has to collect a winner's medal and there's few who could argue he doesn't deserve it.
Horgan has been speaking to Dónal Óg Cusack about his obsession with all things hurling and how memories and friendships from his 17-year inter-county career mean more to him than medals and records.
"The appreciation of how hard it is is the biggest thing that I have learned from 2013 till now."
