CIAN Lynch was voted as GAA Hurling Player of the Week, beating out teammates Declan Hannon and Gearoid Hegarty to the award.
The All-Ireland final wasn’t two minutes old when a piece of Cian Lynch magic set Gearoid Hegarty free for the games opening goal, adding to Lynch’s opening point. Just over a half an hour later the duo combined once more to put the game to bed with Lynch taking his assist tally to 2-4.
In the second half, the Patrickswell man shifted his attention from playmaking to scoring, hitting over five second half scores to take his tally to 0-6 for the day when he was awarded as Man of the Match.
Unsurprisingly, the centre-forward has been named as the player of the week ahead of Hegarty and Declan Hannon.
