The 2014 season was Eamon O'Shea's second year as manager of the Tipperary senior hurling team.
In October 2013, Brendan Maher was named as the new Tipperary captain for 2014.

In December 2013, Skoda Ireland announced the extension of its sponsorship of Tipperary GAA another year. The new 2014 Tipperary strip was also unveiled which features an 1884 motif to commemorate 130 years of Tipperary GAA.[2][3]
On 7 February Tipperary won the Waterford Crystal Cup after a 4–22 to 3–11 win against Clare in the final.[4][5][6][7]
On 27 September, Tipperary were beaten by Kilkenny in the All-Ireland Final on a 2–17 to 2-14 scoreline after the initial match had finished in a draw three weeks earlier.[8][9][10][11][12]
It was Kilkenny's 35th title and also the fifth time that they have beaten Tipperary in the last six years of the Championship.[13] [14][15][16][17][18]

Summary
Tipperary began their league campaign against Waterford on Saturday 15 February at Semple Stadium. They won the match by 2–13 to 0–16 with second-half goals coming from Seamus Callanan and goalkeeper Darren Gleeson after his long-range free drifted all the way into the Waterford net.[33][34][35][36]
A week later on 23 February, Tipperary traveled to Nowlan Park to face Kilkenny in round 2 of the league.[37] Within 15 minutes of the throw-in they had three goals scored, one each from the full-forward trio of Noel McGrath, Jason Forde and Seamus Callanan. Tipperary had a 10 pint lead late in the first half and a 6-point lead at half time while playing with the wind on a 4–9 to 2-9 scoreline.[38] Séamus Callanan scored 3–6 in the game but Kilkenny ran out winners by 6 points.[39][40][41]
In round 3 of the league on 9 March, Tipperary were defeated by Clare on a 0–20 to 4-15 scoreline at Semple Stadium.[42][43][44][45] Clare forward Conor McGrath scored two goals in the first half and one in the second with Clare having a 3–7 to 0–8 lead at half time.[46][47][48]
On 16 March, Tipperary lost their third league game in a row after a 1–19 to 3–16 defeat to Galway at Pearse Stadium.[49][50] Three goals before half-time laid the foundation for a Galway win which puts Tipperary into relegation trouble.[51] Galway had a 3–08 to 0–09 lead at half time.[52][53][54][55][56][57]
On 23 March, Tipperary defeated Dublin by 1–19 to 0–19 in their final divisional game to qualify for the quarter-finals.[58] Tipperary needed to win by 3 points to have a chance of making the quarter-finals at the expense of Dublin and Waterford.[59] With Tipperary leading by 3 points in the last seconds of the game, Dublin player Niall McMorrow sent in a low ball from the 45 metre line into the box instead of going for the point which would have qualified Dublin for the quarter-finals.[60] A point by sub Ronan Maher in the 72nd minute gave Tipperary the required advantage of 3 points to qualify for a quarter-final against Cork.[61] Speaking after the game, Tipperary manager Eamon O'Shea was happy to get the win saying ""We probably were missing one third of our team who you think might be live contenders for championship, today. That's five or six quality players – we've been missing players all through the league here and there, but our form still wasn't good. I'm not trying to take away from the common perception, which is right. We just couldn't seem to get rhythm in our play.[62] The positive thing about this week and even last week before the Galway game ... this is why I was really annoyed that we didn't play to our potential last week ... because we've had two or three weeks of really good training, really good work. I don't disagree that our performances went through bad patches and I wouldn't criticise anybody for the criticism. This is life. Sometimes I think Tipp are a team that have to have rhythm."[63][64][65]
In the league quarter-final on 30 March at Semple Stadium, Tipperary defeated Cork by 3–25 to 4–19.[66] Tipperary scored 2-4 without reply in the opening eight minutes, Denis Maher with the first goal inside a minute and corner-forward Niall O’Meara with the second when he doubled on a miss-hit shot by James Woodlock.[67] Cork recovered to lead by two points at half time on a 3–11 to 3-9 scoreline. Cork goalkeeper Anthony Nash had a late free saved which would have sent the game into extra-time but Tipperary held on to win by three points.[68][69]
On 20 April, Tipperary beat Clare at the Gaelic Grounds to set up a hurling League final against Kilkenny for the second year in a row.[70] Two goals from Patrick Maher and a haul of 0-12 from Seamus Callanan saw Tipperary win in the end by seven points. Tipperary lead by seven-points at half time.[71][72][73][74][75][76][77]
Tipperary made it to the league final in spite of losing three of their opening four league games and conceding 12 goals and 67 points.[78][79][80] The last time that Tipperary beat Kilkenny in a league final was in 1968.[81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88]
In the final played on 4 May at Semple Stadium, Kilkenny won on a 2-25 1-27 scoreline with TJ Reid getting the winning score in the last minute after extra-time.[89] Tipperary had led by 1–11 to 1–9 at half time, the Tipperary goal coming from John O'Dwyer when he connected with Noel McGrath's sideline cut to touch the ball to the net from the edge of the square. The game finished in a draw at 2–17 to 1-20 after 70 minutes with injury time points for Tipperary from Shane Bourke and Kieran Bergin sending the game to extra time.[90][91] Both goals for Kilkenny came from penalties and both scored by TJ Reid and the sides were level 11 times.[92][93][94][95][96][97][98]

Tipperary faced Limerick in the Munster Senior Hurling Championship semi-final on 1 June at Semple Stadium.[99][100] Speaking before the match against Limerick, Tipperary manager Eamon O'Shea said "There are probably nine teams that can win the All-Ireland,It's very competitive – there's a great equality among teams. In Munster, any one of the five could have a shot at it. I think Clare are slightly ahead because they had the confidence of playing last year and playing really well, and having a system that's really good and that they know how to play."[101][102][103]
Cathal Barrett, James Barry and Niall O'Meara were all named in the starting line-up to make his first championship appearance for Tipperary.[104][105] Denis Maher also came on in the 62nd minute of the game to make his championship debut.[106] Limerick won the game on a 2–18 to 2-16 scoreline.[107] [108] With Tipperary leading by three points, Limerick's Shane Dowling scored the equalising goal in the 68th minute before substitute Thomas Ryan put Limerick a point clear in the first minute of stoppage time with Seamus Hickey landeding the insurance score at the Killinan End for a two-point win.[109][110] The sides had been level at 1-8 apiece.[111][112][113][114][115][116][117]
The defeat was a fourth straight championship defeat in three years since losing to Kilkenny in the 2012 All-Ireland semi-final.[118] Speaking after the game Tipperary manager Eamon O’Shea felt that Tipperary need to work on their game management, saying "I believe that we have something in the dressing room and I believe we’ll show it before the end of the season, We have a very disappointed dressing room, naturally. I don’t have any excuses either. I’m not using any excuses. We were a couple of points up and should have finished out the game. We were beaten in the 70th minute, injury-time, so we’re disappointed. As the manager I am looking and saying what can we do to finish a game out where we are there or thereabouts. It is an issue. We are very close to finishing it out, but very close doesn’t mean anything in sport. There are winners and there are losers in sport. You are talking to the losers."[119]

Round 1
Tipperary met Galway in Round 1 of the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Qualifiers on 5 July.[120] The draw took place on RTE Radio 1's 'Morning Ireland’ programme at the RTÉ Radio Centre on 23 June.[121][122] The game was broadcast by Sky Sports on 5 July with a 7.00pm throw-in.[123]
Ronan Maher made his championship debut starting at midfield.[124] Tipperary secured their first championship victory since the Munster final of 2012 with a 3–25 to 4–13 win. At half-time, the sides were level at 2–9 to 1–12. Galway had a 4–12 to 1–15 lead with 20 minutes to go but Tipperary then outscored Galway by 2–10 to 0–1 in the remainder of the game.[125][126] Seamus Callanan scored 3–9 with 3-1 coming from play. Speaking after the match Callinan said "It’s my job to score when all the boys do the hard work outside, It doesn’t work out every day but we kept trying, a few breaks came my way but the next day they will come someone else’s way and that’s how we look at it. We all try to do our best in our own patch and if we all work hard together the results will come."[127][128]
Manager Eamon O'Shea never lost hope during the game saying "I've always said that the manager takes the heat at times but the team are the thing that matter because they're the ones that go out and perform on the pitch. They're at an age where they want to express themselves and we just encourage them to express themselves. I felt at half-time that the lads were determined to do something, we knew they'd have a spell again. When you haven't lost the will to survive with the hurling we have, then things can happen. It doesn't always happen, but things can happen, and that's what I was looking at."[129]
An average of 34,000 viewers tuned in to watch the match on Sky Sports 3 in Ireland, which represented 2.8pc of the market share.[130]

Round 2
The draw for the second round took place on 7 July with Tipperary drawn to face Offaly at O'Moore Park on 12 July.[131] The game was broadcast by Sky Sports with a 7.00pm throw-in.[132] The starting lineup showed one change to the team that started against Galway with Kieran Bergin replacing Ronan Maher at midfield.[133] Tipperary won the game easily by 17 points and had a 4–9 to 0–11 lead at half time.[134][135][136][137] Manager Eamon O'Shea wasn't happy with Tipperary's performance despite their 17-point winning margin, saying "There is no guarantee on any given day that the turn-on switch will be found when you want it, One of the things at this level, you cannot afford to turn off like that because sometimes when you turn on again it is too late. Having said that they do know they need to improve. We are not happy. I don't mean that with any disrespect to winning the game, but we are not happy with our own level. Offaly brought something to the game and that should be acknowledged. They fought and were well organised. The win didn't reflect the game, it was certainly closer to a seven, eight, nine-point game."[138][139][140] Tipperary will now go on to play Dublin in the quarter-finals on 27 July at Semple Stadium.[141][142]

Quarter-final
The Tipperary team was named on 24 July and was unchanged from the win over Offaly for the game against Dublin in the quarter-final.[143][144][145] A crowd of over 40,000 was expected at Semple Stadium for the game which was the second part of a quarter-final double header with Limerick and Wexford also meeting. Both games will be televised live on RTE.[146][147][148] Michael Cahill's knee injury kept him out of the team with Pauric Maher starting at wing back and James Barry at full back. Cathal Barrett started at corner back with Kieran Bergin at wing back and Shane McGrath atmidfield. Tipperary won the game comfortably on a 2–23 to 0-16 scoreline to qualify for an all Ireland semi-final on 17 August against Cork at Croke Park. They had a 0–15 to 0–8 lead at half time.[149][150] John O'Dwyer scored two second half goals, the first a low shot from the right after a pass from Seamus Callanan and the second from the left when he followed up after the goalkeeper saved the initial shot from Patrick Maher.[151] [152][153] He was named as the man of the match by The Sunday Game.[154][155][156][157]
Manager Eamon O'Shea speaking after the match said that people should reassess their estimation of the team since the defeat to Galway in the league in March, saying "We have played eight times, won six, and my belief is that we should have won the league final and we lost the game against Limerick in the last minute.[158] I just think there needs to be a reassessment of that from commentators. When you win six games, surely it can't all be bad. The loss to Limerick was not a good result but there was a cycle where we were playing games within a range of playing well. I didn't feel we went outside of that range. We didn't play that well against Limerick - we certainly didn't finish it. I am not saying that the assessment is completely wrong. I am just saying that you need to look at the whole thing in totality because there may be a different view there."[159][160]

Semi-final
Tipperary played Munster champions Cork in the semi-final at Croke Park on 17 August.[162] It was Tipperary's first game back at Croke Park since their 18-point semi-final defeat to Kilkenny in 2012.[163] Cork got the opening score from Alan Cadogan in the first minute, but it was the only time in the game that Cork were in front. Cork's Shane O’Neill fumbled an easy ball that allowed Séamus Callanan to fire in Tipperary's first goal in the sixth minute.[164] At half time Tipperary had only a two-point lead on a 1–7 to 0-8 scoreline.[165] Seamus Callanan got his second goal of the game in the 47th minute after a pass from Bonner Maher. 2-17 of Tipperary's scores came from play.[166][167][168][169][170][171]
Speaking on The Sunday Game highlights programme on the night of the match, former Cork hurler Dónal Óg Cusack said that in his opinion Tipperary goalkeeper Darren Gleeson gave the greatest ever display of tactical puckouts in the game saying "Darren Gleeson gave the greatest display of tactical puckouts ever seen... I want to put it on record: it was the greatest display of puckouts ever but the Cork defending was poor". Tipperary won 70% of their puckouts during the game.
Tipperary manager Eamon O'Shea speaking after the game said "There was a lot of talk about shoot-outs and so on and I don't think it was ever going to be a shoot-out, certainly from our end," he told us after. "But we just worked our way to the win really, that's the most pleasing aspect.[172] That we ground out the win by working really hard. Whatever way the game would have turned, we would have won it!"[173][174][175][176][177]

Kilkenny manager Brian Cody speaking before the match said that what has gone before between Tipperary and Kilkenny in matches holds no value come throw-in time.[189][190][191][192] Tipperary manager Eamon O'Shea said that if they lost to Galway in the qualifiers it could have been the end of the road for him.[193][194][195][196][197][198][199]
The Tipperary team was named on the evening of 4 September after their last training session. The team is unchanged from the semi-final win against Cork with Michael Cahill failing to regain the number four shirt since a knee injury kept him out of the win against Dublin. Pádraic Maher, though named at full-back, is expected to line out at left half-back, with James Barry going to full-back.[200] Captain Brendan Maher is expected to start at centre-back.[201] Five Tipperary players will be playing in their first All-Ireland final, Darren Gleeson, Cathal Barrett, James Barry, Kieran Bergin and John O'Dwyer.[202][203][204][205][206]
The Tipperary team that won the 1989 All-Ireland Final were presented to the crowd before the match to mark 25 years.[207]
The match finished in a draw for the third year in a row after no draws since the 1959 final.[208] [209] The final has been described my many as the greatest final in history and also the greatest hurling match in history.[210][211][212][213][214][215]
Tipperary had a free from 97 metres out in injury time with the scores level.[216] John O'Dwyer took the free which was hit just wide to the right and required conformation from Hawk-eye.[217][218][219][220][221]

Tipperary's Pádraic Maher said that he know the injury-time attempt from John O’Dwyer was wide before being confirmed by Hawk-Eye saying "“I was standing right behind Bubbles. I stood right behind his free and I thought it was for three-quarters of the way going over the bar, but it just curled off at the finish. I didn’t even look up at the Hawk Eye because I f***ing knew it was gone wide. Excuse my language, but that’s just the ups and downs of the game. It was fantastic. It must have been some game to watch and it was great to be a part of it. It’s a big game again in three weeks’ time and we'll just try and come out the right side of the result.”[222]
Manager Eamon O'Shea was focusing on the positives after the draw saying ""I feel I was a participant in a brilliant game," "Of course you feel drained, you try to win the game right until the end, but I just felt the occasion in terms of the game was just one of those was games..."I don't know what it looked like when you're dispassionate...but I just felt it was one of those games, like in 2009 (All-Ireland Final which Kilkenny won), it was just one of those games where you felt it was just good to be there." O'Shea also thought that John O'Dwyer's late free had gone over the bar saying " "I felt he had a chance," I thought it was over but obviously HawkEye said no. He got a great strike on it and he was unlucky." "I'm looking forward to the next day," "When you're involved in a game like that, from my perspective, you just try and win the game right until the end. You don't get a chance to get too emotional about it so I'm just looking forward to the next day, "I thought they (Tipperary) did really well today. They worked really hard, they believed in what they were doing. We could have won it, we might have lost it because we were playing against a fantastic team."[223]
The final was shown live in Ireland on RTÉ One as part of The Sunday Game live programme, presented by Michael Lyster from Croke Park, with studio analysis from Cyril Farrell, Tomás Mulcahy and Ger Loughnane.

Damien Young is really good on the videos, so I don't tend to watch the games fully, I say to him can you pick out this, that and the other.[233][234][235][236][237][238][239]

Tipperary manager Eamon O'Shea speaking after the game said "We came up to win... but I really think there are more important things... the important things are that I have a dressing room of men, who fought the battle to the end, who didn't flinch when things didn't go their way."[268][269] "I have a dressing-room full of men down there who fought the battle to the end, who didn't flinch, who... things didn't go their way and yet the team kept going," he said.
