Tyrone make most of Kildare’s wayward shooting

Tyrone 1-13 Kildare 0-10

Having accounted for Dublin the previous week, Tyrone produced a dominant first-half display in Newbridge that saw them capitalise on an error-strewn Kildare effort in that period and lay the foundation for the success.

It was far from perfect by Tyrone as Kildare came at them with the wind in the second half. As Harte acknowledged, had the hosts managed to be more clinical — they racked up nine wides in the latter period and dropped six shots short — it would have been a tighter affair.
