Clare are through to the 2017 Munster Hurling Minor Championship Final on July 9th after a 0-19 to 0-17 extra time win over Limerick at Cusack Park on Wednesday evening.

Two points by Gary Cooney of O'Callaghan's Mills in the second period of extra-time sealed the win.

Clare will face the winners of the other semi-final between Cork and Tipperary on Thursday.

Sean Doyle's side join the county's senior team in a rare double header fixture for The Banner on Munster Final day.
