Wallace caps glory day for Ardfert

Ardfert (Kerry) 1-7 Loughrea (Galway) 0-9

It was a fittingly dramatic ending to a campaign that has seen the Kerry champions living on the edge all year long on their way to this title.

Yesterday’s win couldn’t quite match the excitement of their semi-final victory over Monaghan Harps, when two goals late in extra-time rescued them from elimination, but they still made their supporters sweat one last time before clinching the win yesterday.
