Joe canning became the man with the most scores in Championship history as he passed out ten time All-Ireland winner Henry Shefflin. Galway crashed out of the Championship on a score line of 1-30 – 3-20. But history belongs to the 32 year old from Portumna county Galway, will we see Canning back for another year next year? Hopefully, but one thing is for sure thank God he won his All-Ireland back in 2017 the best players deserve to win the big trophy’s.

Can only credit Henry Shefflin. The second Joe Canning overtook him as all time top scorer the boots were on & he was down the field pucking balls. Joe won't add to his tally in 2021 but Henry might…….. pic.twitter.com/ggB0mtJafh

I'm so glad Joe Canning got his All Ireland medal because watching him produce a career worth of celestial hurling summers like this without reward would have been heartbreaking

Between Joe Canning, Patrick Horgan and Tony Kelly, another day’s hurling that reminded of Christy Ring’s famous line…

Limerick are still the strong favourites for this years Championship, but there are still come good teams left in the Championship and they won’t give it to Limerick easily.
