Limerick supporter says ‘special prayer’ from Indonesia ahead of All-Ireland final


THE DAY is near, adrenaline is beginning to pump around the county and indeed across the world in eager anticipation of Limerick’s fourth All-Ireland final appearance in-a-row. From Lebanon to New York and now even Indonesia, Limerick fans are showing their support for the boys in green in colourful and creative ways.
Emily Ryan from Caherelly along with her three friends, Claire Talty, Niamh Madden and Ceire Flynn said a special prayer in a traditional Indonesian way ahead of the All-Ireland final this Sunday.
The four girls who completed their Speech and Language course in Galway are travelling around South-East Asia in celebration.
According to Emily’s mother, Aoife the girls will manage someway to watch the match but with the seven-hour time difference, they may struggle to find somewhere showing the game.
“They’re on the Gili Islands at the moment so they don’t know if there’ll be a place showing the match,” Aoife said.
“They’ll find some way of watching it, even if it's on their phones,” she added.
It’s just over 24 hours until Limerick take on Kilkenny in the All-Ireland senior hurling final. Throw-in is at 3.30pm and it will be aired live from RTÉ Two.
