Kildare a real danger to Kerry, insists Eamonn Fitzmaurice

We can thank US sport for “The Big Mo”. Kildare have it and Kerry manager Eamonn Fitzmaurice is well aware of it as Sunday’s All-Ireland SFC quarter-final joust with the Lilywhites in Croke Park looms.

The Kingdom boss believes momentum can take a team a long distance in championship football — and Kildare have generated more than a modicum of it in the last few weeks.

Fitzmaurice also stresses the Lilywhites possess a “fearlessness” heading into this clash with the reigning All Ireland champions.
