Comebacks in fashion but Model fall short

IT’S official.

An eight-point advantage is now the most dangerous lead in football after the second of yesterday’s All-Ireland semi-finals proved again that there is no such thing as a lost cause in this year’s championship.

Kerry have let such an advantage slip on three occasions this summer – not counting yesterday’s nine-point lead — and, for a fleeting moment midway through this second-half, it looked like Tyrone had caught the same bug.
