Kildare’s amazing Orchard raid

Armagh 0-10 Kildare 0-12

Teams rarely leave south Armagh with anything more concrete than bumps, bruises and bloodied egos but Kildare confounded all expectations by not only matching Armagh in the last rounds, but landing the knockout punches as well.

Though seven men found their way into Martin Duff’s little black book, there was none of Omagh’s sulphur or rancour in evidence.
