Tougher tests ahead but O’Connor delighted with Kerry’s appetite

DESPITE the comfortable victory over Tipperary, Kerry coach Jack O’Connor knows only too well far more tougher tests lie ahead.

"It was a game that had to be played, and I'm delighted with the big score we put up", said O'Connor. "2-22 in any man's language is a good score, but we conceded 13 points which we'll have a look at.

"I suppose the goal just after half time killed the game. A one-sided match like that tells you nothing, but it was a game which got us focused for the semi-final against Limerick.
