Kildare’s Daniel Flynn moving on from the miss

Daniel Flynn has filed it away as one of those live and learn moments but there is regret too that he didn’t rattle Stephen Cluxton’s net at Croke Park this month.

Kildare trailed Dublin by six points after 45 minutes of the Leinster final when Flynn burst into space and bore down on Cluxton’s goal.

A goal would have left just three points in it and posed a rare question of a Dublin side that have all too frequently breezed through Leinster Championship games.
