Down game ‘massive’ for toothless Kingdom

Eamonn Fitzmaurice’s side were swatted aside by Donegal and the problems for the Kerry manager continue to stack up. Not only were they lining up without mainstays like Colm Cooper, Declan O’Sullivan and Paul Galvin, they then lost Marc Ó Sé to injury, while Kieran Donaghy was carried from the field late on and Tomás Ó Sé was red carded on 40 minutes for kicking out at Ryan McHugh.
“We have a lot of work to do, and we are just going to go back at it this week and try and get our house in order,” Fitzmaurice said afterwards. “Hopefully we can get a few bodies back and try and be competitive against Down, because it’s a massive game for us now.
