Kerry bounced back from their National League final defeat to Armagh in the best way possible. It wasn’t just that they won the Munster title for the first time since 2017.

Beating Cork in the final, a year on from losing to their neighbours by six points in the decider, was the dash of orange in the drought-ending win.
