Murphy praises Treaty efforts

Redemption was achieved by both teams in Sunday’s thrilling All-Ireland semi-final, according to Kilkenny defender Paul Murphy pictured right.

The Danesfort man was the toast of the county’s contingent in Croke Park when he climbed to catch a last-gasp ball into the danger area, which was quickly followed by the final whistle.

“I don’t think I even knew I had caught it for a second ‘cause you could hear lads were coming in on top of it. A lot of other days, you wouldn’t catch it especially with the conditions and that but thankfully I got it.”
