An extraordinary end to a surreal afternoon in the Páirc. Finally, perhaps, a new house to call home for Cork football after a shuddering, raucous end down the Marina.

An evening when the faint sense of Tadghie Murphy hung over proceedings, Cork defiantly hanging around, Kerry ahead but never comfortable before the upstart chinned them at the City End — just like Murphy did past Charlie Nelligan 37 years ago.
