Austin O'Malley acknowledged there were concerning moments for Cuala as they fought back a remarkable Errigal Ciaran resurgence to win the All-Ireland.

Cuala are known as a team that switches off at times though even they couldn't have expected to, firstly, lead an All-Ireland club final by 14 points and then see that lead cut to just a solitary score in a frenzied second-half.
