Fools us if we considered Dublin were going to struggle after going a man down with 20 minutes of normal time to go.

By the 58th minute, the minds of the Dublin faithful had wandered elsewhere. Passes were cheered as their team picked at the bones of the Kerry carcass.

Dublin 1-13 Offaly 0-16: Teenager Cian Johnson came of age at Parnell Park with a thrilling display and the equaliser to deny Bord na Mona O’Byrne Cup holders Dublin.

It didn’t require a trained lip-reader to decipher the sentiments of the Kerry players at the final whistle in Tralee, two words repeated and rhyming with book it.

Donegal 2-5 Dublin 1-8: No harm to either team’s unbeaten records, but no foul, either — how Ciaran Branagan felt Donegal had earned a last-gasp free to tie this game was mystifying.

A disputable additional time free ensured Donegal extended their unbeaten record in Ballybofey to 16 games.

Sigerson Cup - St Mary’s 2-14 DCU-Dóchas Éireann 2-13 (AET): St Mary’s manager Paddy Tally praised his side after their dramatic upset in beating hosts and favourites DCU-Dóchas Éireann.

Palatine (Carlow) 0-8 St Vincent’s (Dublin) 0-16: Palatine co-manager Mick Lillis claimed Diarmuid Connolly is an easy target after the St Vincent’s captain was black-carded in the first half of this Leinster club SFC quarter-final in Carlow yesterday.

By now, you’ve probably heard where Diarmuid Connolly was the evening prior to the drawn All-Ireland final: Crossmaglen. You might have also caught where he should be right now: Ibiza.

Dublin boss Jim Gavin has called for meaningful dialogue between managers and referees during the season.

Ciaran Murtagh missed a late free as the reigning All-Ireland champions Dublin made it seven from seven in the Allianz League Division 1 by the minimum against Roscommon in Carrick-on-Shannon

John Fogarty runs the rule over the Division 1 contenders.

DCU 6-14 Athlone IT 1-7: Monaghan’s Shane Carey fired a brilliant 3-6 as holders Dublin City University made a strong statement of their intention to capture back-to-back Sigerson Cup titles for the first time.

Dublin 3-24 IT Carlow 2-08: Cormac Costello helped himself to an impressive 2-6 as experimental Dublin cruised to a big O’Byrne Cup win, keeping the holders firmly in the frame for a semi-final berth.

St Vincent’s 0-22 Na Fianna 2-9 (Dublin SFC semi-final): St Vincent’s kept their ambitions of a third successive title firmly intact as they accounted for Na Fianna yesterday afternoon.

JIM Gavin recognised the trap even before it had been fully laid.

Not for the first time this decade, Tipperary are setting themselves up to be the feelgood story of the football season.

Tipperary showed tremendous composure to finish strongly and book their place in a first ever Eirgrid All-Ireland U21FC final.

If he was to end up as the answer to a GAA quiz question, Damien Comer couldn’t be too surprised.

Connacht semi-final: Roscommon v Sligo, Kiltoom, 7.30pm.

Stephen Cluxton is among six changes to the Dublin side for tonight’s Allianz Football League Division 1 clash with Tyrone in Croke Park (7pm).

Laois u21s 2-10 Dublin u21s 2-21: When the dust settles on the 2015 season, Dessie Farrell and his Dublin U21 footballers might well look back on this one as the one that crowned them.

Kerry 0-15 Dublin 1-10

Dublin avenged last year’s All-Ireland semi-final defeat, with a five-point win over Donegal at Croke Park tonight.

Jim Gavin has described as “baffling” Central Council’s decision to oppose the introduction of the clock/hooter, having endorsed it last year. 

Cork 1-15 Dublin 0-16

Cork 1-15 Dublin 0-16

Kildare 0-19 Dublin 0-24: Bord na Mona O’Byrne Cup final: For the second time in five years, Jason Ryan was left to rue the red card extra-time rule against Dublin, as the Dubs took full advantage of replacing dismissed Michael Darragh Macauley in the additional periods at Newbridge yesterday

St Vincents 1-13 Rhode 0-06

AIB Leinster Club SFC final

Dublin SFC final

History was made yesterday as a GAA president paid a visit to the GPA’s offices for the first time. More important was the reason for Liam O’Neill’s visit.

Pre-championship favourites Ballymun Kickhams got their Dublin SFC campaign off to a winning start as they recorded a comfortable victory over Naomh Olaf at Parnell Park last night.

Dublin 1-21 Roscommon 3-06

By hook or by crook — and furious Cavan may just argue it is the latter — Dublin could yet win this Cadbury All-Ireland U-21 football championship as they’ve been tipped to do so from the outset.
