Kelly: Dubs will be ‘deflated’ after blowing big chance

Former All-Ireland winning Tipperary captain Eoin Kelly reckons Dublin blew a chance of a famous win and could struggle to pick things time up in time for next Sunday.

Dublin led league champions Kilkenny by five points with five minutes of normal time remaining in Pat Gilroy’s first Leinster championship game as boss, but they couldn’t hold out and lost by two, leaving Pat Gilroy with a huge job to lift his players for Sunday’s trip to Wexford.

They led Kilkenny from the third minute to the 71st, but were suckered by a late goal and lost Conal Keaney to injury, while Wexford will be fresh after a weekend off.
