Padraic Joyce hit out at the decision to award Kerry a free with the scores tied late in the All-Ireland final, claiming it was a wrong call that cost Galway.

The Galway manager pointed to the 67th minute free, awarded against John Daly for a foul on Killian Spillane, as the turning point in a game that was level nine times up to then.
