Kildare surge sees off Rebels

With 13 minutes of normal time remaining, they found themselves just two points in arrears having faced the wind in the first-half after which they trailed by five, 0-8 to 0-3.
That they were so close to Kildare in the final quarter was flattering in light of the goal opportunities the home side had and the freakish nature of Luke Connolly’s 55th minute goal, which made it 1-9 to 1-6.
