Kildare 1-21 Cork 1-13: Fionn Fitzgerald has a lot to answer for.

Dublin 5-18 Kildare 0-14

Kildare 3-18 Laois 1-11: Not even their own supporters held much hope of Kildare beating Laois given their injuries and a horrible league campaign but manager Jason Ryan insists he and his coaching staff retained faith in their methods despite some of the vitriol being aimed in their direction.

Kildare blitzed Laois in stunning fashion after half time to canter into a Leinster semi-final against Dublin.

Laois and Kildare couldn’t be separated and have to meet again next Saturday at O’Connor Park, Tullamore after this rip-roaring Leinster championship clash.

Galway 3-12 Kildare 1-12: A performance symbolic of a regressive spring campaign, Kildare dropping to the league’s third tier with hardly a punch thrown in this deciding bout.

Second-half goals from Fintan Ó Curraoin and Shane Walsh preserved Galway’s Division 2 status, and, in the process, condemned Kildare to the third tier.

Clare came within minutes of stunning Kildare at Cusack Park last night but in the end the Lilywhites' coolness in the final quarter and impressive fitness levels got them over the line.

Kildare booked their place in Round 3B of the All-Ireland football qualifiers thanks to a 1-18 to 0-11 victory over Down in Newry.

LEINSTER SFC QUARTER-FINAL:

Kildare belied much of the pre-match portents of doom to crush Louth in Croke Park and cruise to a Leinster semi-final date with either Meath or Carlow.
