Kilkenny’s patented third-quarter surge bags 36th title
We have learned these last three years not to expect Kilkenny to ravage teams at this stage of the competition and a four-point margin hardly screams an emphatic win. But if anything the scoreline was slightly unfair to Brian Cody’s winning class of 2015.
They were the only team in this contest in the second-half. Joe Canning’s late goal from a 20-metre free will deceive the history books into thinking this was a tighter contest than it actually was.
