Kerry survive late Galway rally to conclude league with victory

KERRY SURVIVED A late Galway goal to stave off the Tribesmen in Killarney but the end result in Killarney made little difference to either team in terms of how their Division One campaign ended.

That late Galway came from substitute Tomo Culhane in the 68th goal, about the first exciting thing to happen in a game that will be quickly forgotten. Advertisement Galway hit the front through two Rob Finnerty marks and a Cillian Ó Curraoin point from play, and by the 20-minute mark the visiots led 0-5 to 0-2, with Paul Conroy and Cathal Sweeney also on target.

With the crowd’s interest waning, Kerry sent on the Clifford brothers, with Paudie kicking a point with his first touch, and David latter converting a free. Conroy then pointed to cut the margin to two points but Kerry held on for the win. A win few will remember, same as it was a loss Galway won’t lose much sleep over.

KERRY: Shane Ryan, Paul Murphy, Dylan Casey, Armin Heinrich, Seán O’Brien, Tadhg Morley, Gavin White, Barry ‘Dan’ O’Sullivan, Joe O’Connor, Adrian Spillane, Paul Geaney, Stephen O’Brien, Killian Spillane, Darragh Roche, Seán O’Shea.
