Armagh's Tiernan Kelly could be in hot water after what appears to have been an eye gouge on Galway star Damien Comer.

Armagh's Tiernan Kelly could be in hot water after what appears to have been an eye gouge on Galway star Damien Comer.

Galway captain Sean Kelly was shown a straight red card for his part in the dust-up – ruling him out of their All-Ireland semi-final against Derry on July 9.Armagh’s Aidan Nugent also saw red, though extended panel member Kelly, whose fingers appeared to make contact with Comer’s eye in a separate incident wasn’t punished.

“Sure that’ll be dealt with,” said Joyce. “I didn’t see it, honest to God, I was on the far side of the pitch.Galway could yet be targeted with retrospective punishment if disciplinary chiefs feel they have cases to answer.“All I know is that we’re playing Derry on Saturday week so we’ll get everybody right for that.Joyce said he condemned the ugly scenes and also claimed that Shane Walsh was ‘targeted all day long’ by Armagh players.

Armagh manager Kieran McGeeney said: “It’s not something you want to see. I suppose this year that’s two of them we have sort of been in, it’s unfortunate.
