The 2004 Munster Senior Hurling Championship final was a hurling match played on 27 June 2004 at Semple Stadium, Thurles, County Tipperary. It was contested by Cork and Waterford. Waterford claimed their second Munster Championship of the decade, beating Cork on a scoreline of 3–16 to 1-21, a 1-point winning margin.[1] Overall, this was Waterford's seventh Munster Senior Hurling Championship. The final, which swung both ways numerous times, including numerous goals and a sending off, is considered one of the greatest Munster Hurling Finals of all time. In Ireland, the match was televised live on The Sunday Game on RTÉ Two, with commentary from Ger Canning and Michael Duignan.[2]
