Who was your man of the match in Tipp's superb All-Ireland win?

Think you know better than the Sunday Game panel?

SEAMUS CALLANAN PRODUCED one of the great All-Ireland final displays as Tipperary beat Kilkenny and lifted the Liam MacCarthy Cup.

Callanan finished with a massive 0-13, including nine points from play, as Tipp ran out nine-point winners in Croke Park.

The Drom & Inch man will be the leading contender for the man of the match award, which will be named live on The Sunday Game on RTÉ this evening.

But there were a host of outstanding performers across the rest of the Tipperary team.

John ‘Bubbles’ O’Dwyer justified Michael Ryan’s faith in starting him and scored a brilliant 1-5, including Tipp’s crucial first goal, while John McGrath bagged 1-3 of his own.

At the other end, 20-year-old Ronan Maher turned in one of the performances of his young career as he did battle with Kilkenny star Richie Hogan and came out on top.

Who do you think should be named man of the match?
