Offaly hurlers are fighting for a place against Galway in the All-Ireland Semi-Final

Offaly hurling is reeling in the years this weekend as the county returns to the Quarter-Final stage of the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship for the first time since 2003.

Faithful supporters have waited 23 years for this level of hurling to return after defeat in that 2003 quarter-final to Tipperary. Just five years before that, Offaly was at the summit of senior hurling, lifting the Liam MacCarthy Cup as All-Ireland champions in 1998.

Offaly take on Cork this time around after outlasting old foes Kilkenny in the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship. Offaly’s final day win over Kildare, victory over Wexford and earlier draws with Dublin and Kilkenny were enough to see Johnny Kelly’s men into this stage of the championship.

Here's everything you need to know about the game:

When is it on?

Cork v Offaly is on in Semple Stadium in Thurles on Sunday, June 21.

What time is throw-in?

The match throws in at 3.30pm. Coverage on RTÉ One begins at 12.50pm and will also feature Dublin's Round 3 All-Ireland Football Championship meeting with Donegal at Croke Park before attention turns to the Quarter-Final showdown in Semple Stadium.
