What a save it was.
Haven't seen game back, hear pen was soft
I suppose the question is on duty of care. He couldn't avoid his head cos his other foot was on his arm. Red, not for me, but a clear yellow
Ball there to be won. EC sprung forward into SoS attempt to kick the ball. He was far enough away to avoid contact, his head butt as well was despicable
It was the most fûcking obvious red card offence committed this year… yet several officials conspire to not want to give it, embarrassing .it was a deliberate kick to Evans face…watch till the very end, left boot.
Nobody said follow through......... trailing foot, trailing foot, trailing foot,
Headbutt ....red card
The funniest thing about the O’Shea kick to the head is that people are calling it a follow through, kick with the right, follow through with the left. Clearly deliberate. Straight red.
Exactly so calling Kerry by far the better team is plain thick.
It was the first half wides that beat Dublin.
By far the better team? Dublin had created more chances and more turnovers more possession,yep kerry were more accurate but i think saying by far the better team is a bit of a joke. I sincerely doubt your a dublin supporter or perhaps just have no knowledge of football which is fine.
Contact with the head. Red
Well we will never know but at least for him they would have had twenty mines to play so a miss would still leave them in it .i am sure also KERRY would have had a spell in extra time as well so it would have been hard enough to call the winner .
If it had gone to extra time I imagine Dublin would have won. So it was a pressure shot.
I am dissapointed because we had a chance to hit the front late on whether it would have been deserved or not means nothing . The lack of composure and if we had fouled further down the pitch we might have avoided the loss .It was a great kick to win it but it was a shot to nothing not the same as having to score to tie it up .
What's with this self hating shite? We've all the right in the world to be annoyed. Let us be glum for a sec.
Yeah they were and with 10 seconds to go there was nothing in it. Without one of the top three in Ireland.
Will dessie be kept on?
Hard luck lads. Really think Con would have made a huge difference and ye might have even won with a few to spare if he'd been on the pitch. Could have won it even without him though. The shooting very poor in the first half. McCarthy absolutely immense in leading the comeback though, my man of the match.
Kerry are ropey when the pressure is on, I have to say.
Open your eyes and stop making things up..
Dublin supporters here are being a bit delusional, and grasping at straws.
Kerry were by far the better team. Way more skilful.
If Dublin had have won, it would be robbery.
Referee was fair in my opinion, so any complaints there is just sour grapes.
suck it up folks. Hard times ahead for the dubs.
And I’m a dub supporter for a long time.
Yeah like faking injury after being kicked in the head and having your arm stood on. What an arsehole
Good summary.
always going to be a close game but when the 3 most critical decisions made by the ref are incorrect… no red, diving for the frees…. What can you do… and trust me, nothing will get done.
Great game, nothing went our way. Black card rule is absolute bollix, worse punishment for fouling a lad without the ball.
Absolutely loved it.
Up the Dubs!!
Wont bother with the final.
Frustrating to see us like in league games playing the ball too slow and out to the corners .
The attacking patterns today were like something you'd see in an underage game. The style of attack is very easy to shut down if you don't have a runner with pace breaking through or better movement on the inside line.
McCarthy was my motm..what a player ,the driving force..the rest seemed nullified to shoot.
It’s a Gaillimh geansaí I need. Will probably end up having to go to the final due to family connections.
Rubbish diving and feigning injury he was entitled to ho for the ball.
Hard luck. Kerry seem to have a wobble in them, I thought ye might nick it at the end. Kerry probably deserved it in the end. Ye look to be a little light at the back, I can see why the hurler was brought in this year.
I wouldn’t mind but he missed some fairly blatant stuff at the other end. There was a clear foot block on Kilkenny when the scores were level. He was surrounded by Kerry players and tried to kick pass it back only for his foot to be blocked with a foot. I like a ref to let the game flow but to pick and choose when you do it can be frustrating for supporters.
That Dublin team of recent years are the greatest football team of all time. It will be interesting to see where Dublin go from here, but i honestly don't expect them to be down for too long imo.
