Galway turned up with a plan. What was Kerry’s?
We were all expecting to see a fast, end-to-end game of football from the current Connacht and Munster champions. Both teams were fresh and had weeks to prepare for this battle.
On yesterday’s evidence, Galway used their time the wisest and looked tactically far superior to Kerry. Kerry have only played twice this summer but for long parts of yesterday’s game, they looked like they’ve only trained twice together. I was most looking forward to seeing two of the best and most talented full-forward lines in the championship on view. The Galway full-forward line delivered because they had a plan.
