Brogan brothers do damage as Dubs extend unbeaten run

THERE was something entirely appropriate in the manner in which Dublin qualified for their first Division One final since 1999 in Croke Park on Saturday evening.

After their grandfather Jim had passed away the day previously, it was the Brogan brothers, Alan and Bernard, who combined to maintain their team’s 100% league run.

A minute before providing the cross-goal pass which Down midfielder Kalum King fumbled and Alan exploited, sub Bernard sent over an excellent equalising point.
