That became four when Hayes scored his second five minutes into the second half.
However, three quick Limerick goals reduced the margin to one with ten minutes to go, but Newmarket’s Eoin Hayes scored to secure his hat-trick, and a crucial 5-3 win for Clare in the first match under floodlights at the County Grounds in Doora.
