IMPORTANT UPDATE: There is confusion over whether tickets have actually sold out. Tap the link for more on this breaking story
Demand for tickets for the All-Ireland U20 Hurling Final between Offaly and Tipperary has seen the final sell out in a matter of an hour.
A statement from Ticketmaster confirmed that the event was sold out, and the site was working fine despite belief that the site had crashed in the early hours of Monday afternoon.
A Ticketmaster spokesperson confirmed that the game was "All sold out and absolutely nothing wrong with the site".
A message from Offaly County Board had urged people to be patient on Monday afternoon, and said tickets were still available.
Tickets for the much anticipated clash went on sale at 2.30 pm and shortly afterwards none were available.
Within five minutes people were unable to buy tickets for the stand.
The decision to host the game in Nowlan Park has come in for particular scrutiny due to the demand for tickets.
Nowlan Park in Kilkenny has a capacity of 26,000.
The U-20 final was held in Semple Stadium last year with tickets incredibly scarce, when Offaly lost to Cork.
