Athenry (Galway) 4-15 Sean Tracey's (London) 0-5

Athenry are just 120 minutes away from regaining the All-Ireland club SHC crown they won in 2001 after booking their place in the semi-final with ease.

Brilliant Galway full-forward Eugene Cloonan hit 4-9 of their total and actually scored all their first-half tally of 4-5 to 0-3.

In a bizarre incident the game was held up for 10 minutes as a helicopter landed on the Ruislip pitch to aid a sick child in a nearby housing estate.

Timmy Moloney scored all of Tracey's points.
