A bit of afters following the whistle!
It will come as no surprise that there has been some argy bargy in the All-Ireland SHC final between Cork and Tipperary.
After Shane Barrett's goal just before half-time, Rebel talisman Patrick Hogan was seen scuffling with Premier keeper Rhys Shelley.
It was initially unclear what caused the incident, but BBC NI suggested that it was due to gloating from Horgan.
There was another mini bust-up just after the whistle blew for the break, with Willie Connors and Declan Dalton clashing down the tunnel, and a water bottle thrown at the latter's head.
With Tipperary now leading after Cork's six-point lead at the break, it could have been just what was needed to spark the comeback.
