15:30 13 mins: Good start by the star forwards as Shane McGuigan wiggles around for an opening and then sticks it over with his right for a fine score. Then Kerry somehow don’t score after some luck and brilliant defending. Paul Murphy goes for the fisted point, hits the post, then falls to White who shoots but well blocked and ended up a free out.
Kerry 0-3 Derry 0-3 15:27 10 mins: Lovely point by Derry after Rogers made a good run and laid off for McGuigan who sweetly hits over the bar. Kerry 0-3 Derry 0-2 15:25 8 mins: Immediate response from Kerry as Tony Brosnan splits the posts from about 25 metres out. Derry going for the aggressive goalkeeper approach again, will be interesting to see if Lynch is caught out again.
Then a brilliant mark by David Clifford in between two defenders from a high ball and puts it over the bar. Kerry 0-3 Derry 0-1 15:23 6 mins: Counter attack from Kerry is well marshalled to a standstill by Derry and Ó Beaglaoich hits it wide after good defending. Derry then patiently come up the pitch and it’s a point for Derry’s inspirational figure, Conor Glass, well taken from distance.
Kerry 0-1 Derry 0-1 15:17 Nearly a goal in the first minute by Derry’s McKinless, who runs through and hits across the goal, just past the post! But the first point of the game goes to David Clifford, who has lots of time and scores with his left in front of the posts. Kerry 0-1 Derry 0-0 15:06 Ahead of the game today, Denis Walsh previews and says the shadow box.
