Galway forward Jason Flynn will miss the rest of the All-Ireland senior hurling championship because of a hamstring injury.
Henry Shefflin confirmed Flynn will not be available for this weekend’s semi-final against Limerick, or the All-Ireland decider should Galway advance.
Flynn, who scored a goal when he came on in the Leinster final, also featured off the bench in the Tribesmen’s victory over Tipperary last time out.
Speaking to Galway Bay FM, Shefflin said: “Jason came back on the Tuesday after the Tipperary match and lit it up in training.
