Rebels labour to make Galway pay

ALL-IRELAND SFC RD4 QUALIFIER:

“I took a chance. Kicking (towards the net) probably didn’t work out for us too well during the game so I said I’d try and palm it in. When I looked at it, I thought I had hit the crossbar.”

Walsh had done just that in the fourth minute when he hit the underside of the bar with a rifling shot. Pearse O’Neill made up for it with a point from the rebound and the same midfielder was on hand to set up Walsh for the goal after seeing his shot rocket off the foot of the post.
