Some of Ireland's greatest hurlers came together on Saturday evening for a match in aid of the Amanda Stapleton Benefit Fund.

Amanda, who was recently diagnosed with terminal brain cancer, is the sister of Tipperary All-Ireland winner Paddy Stapleton.

Recreating some of the great hurling matches of years gone by, Kilkenny and Tipperary met at Bishop Quinlan Park in Borrisoleigh.

With the likes of Brendan Cummins, Henry Shefflin, Lar Corbett, Eddie Brennan and numerous other All-Ireland winners among the players togging out for tonight's game, it was always going to be a cracker.

In the end, a high-scoring affair finished all level.
