Cluxton’s streak continues 

A perfect 13 games. Not since Killian Spillane’s 56th-minute goal in the drawn 2019 All-Ireland final has Stephen Cluxton conceded a goal in the championship. Now, it should also be said, he was not asked to make an enormous amount of saves during that stretch. In fact, Cluxton’s true value comes from his restarts. Since his return to the fold Dublin’s there has been a significant increase in their net points per kickout.
