Peter Keane happy to be over ‘first step’ as Kerry destroy Waterford

Kerry 2-21 Waterford 1-2: For Kerry, few questions were asked. For Waterford, the questions continue to stack up.

Last night in Dungarvan, the county’s latest batch of minor footballers were played off the field to the tune of 22-points. The home outfit trailed by 0-11 to 0-0 after just 13 minutes of action, that gap stretching out to 15 come the interval. Worse again was the Déise’s inability to register a single score until the 21st minute, a further 22 minutes passing before they added a second.

Four weeks ago on the very same field, the Waterford U21s were on the receiving end of a 25-point trouncing from Cork. On that occasion, the home outfit failed to open their account until the 48th minute.
