In the Second Semi --Final, Croom v Killmallock proved to be a very exciting contest with Croom winning 1-13 to Kilmallock's 1-8 .It was a tough Physical encounter with no holds barred from both sides.

It was 1-11 to 0-8 in favour of the Maiguesiders at this stage, pressure was mounted by Killmallock driven from the sideline by the ex Limerick star Mike Houlihan.A foul on Andrew O Shaughnessy resulted in Shaugh's driving the sliotar low and hard into the Croom net.Croom in the end proved they wanted it more on the day and they added two more points toward the end of the match. An Invasion ensued of the pitch by the Croom Supporters and selectors who feel this maybe their year at last.Adare await them in the County Final.
