Talk of unbeaten record 'was very hard to get away from' admits Dublin defender

Dublin defender Cian O’Sullivan admits getting rid of the distraction of their unbeaten tag is a ‘positive’ they can take from losing the Allianz League final.

That one-point loss to Kerry earlier this month was Dublin’s first defeat in either league or Championship since early March 2015 when they also lost to Kerry, an unbeaten run of 36 games.

Four-time All-Ireland winning centre-back O’Sullivan said players tried to ignore the unbeaten streak as it grew but admitted that became difficult.
