Kerry-Gaa

Right wing forward’s eight-points and 1-5 from Ronan Carroll earned the Kingdom a 52nd minor Munster football title

Cork’s Jack Trench and Danny Miskella battle for possession with Killian Dennehy and Fionn Ryan of Kerry during the Electric Ireland Munster MFC final at Páirc Uí Rinn. Photograph: James Crombie/InpoAn eight-point exhibition from Gearóid White completed Kerry’s clean sweep of Munster football titles for the second year in a row as they proved too strong for Cork at Páirc Uí Rinn on Monday evening.

Kerry were dominant from the start in front of 2,444 fans as they wiped out the Cork kick-out with an effective press, splendid fielding, and a hunger for breaking ball. They translated that possession into attacks and scores, outshooting the hosts by 18 attempts to five in the first half.

Quick counters from Danny Miskella and Ben O’Shea got Cork up and running but Kerry replied with another four in a row. The goal arrived in the 38th minute. The influential Gavin O’Keeffe caught a Cork kick-out and Murphy raced through the heart of the defence to find the bottom corner.
