History
- Clare 3-21 : 2-15 Antrim (30 June 2007 at Casement Park) - In the first and to date only championship meeting between the two sides, goals from Neil McManus and Michael Herron, plus a healthy return of points, meant the Ulster champions kept in touch for most of the game. Clare had to dig deep for their opening All-Ireland group stage qualifier win, with Niall Gilligan's 67th-minute strike sealing a nine-point win for Clare.[1]
