Ulster counties battle it out for a spot in the semi-finals after Kerry thrashed Tyrone
Morgan kicks a long free for Tyrone but it drifts wide. Foley turns the ball over for Kerry and some beautiful flowing football, off the shoulder and Séan O’Shea slots it over. Then White plays into Clifford who calls the mark and another point for Kerry.Nice first point for Tyrone, Michael McKernan from corner-back, runs through the Kerry defence and expertly puts it over.
Think about it. When was the last time we got down to the last eight without a turkey-shoot in the offing? It’s a decade at least – and even in 2013, Mayo ended up laying waste to Donegal. Whether through the old-style qualifiers, the Super-8s or even the Covid-era provincial finals, it has generally been the case for a long time now that when we get to this stage, telling the contenders from the pretenders had not been a problem.
