Minor All Ireland Football Championship 2024

Goal was on there that could have been the winner. Kerry shitting the bed.

[gallsman]

Kerry just with that little bit more class. Cavan boys had a few chances there that they should have done better with.

[cavanmaniac]

Kerry just about the better side. Cavan had their chances. Ref was simply not going to give Cavan a scoreable free there in the closing stages, no matter what. Definitely one nailed on one he ignored.

FT Kerry 0-14 Cavan 1-9. Main emotion for Kerry at full time was relief.

Yes a tap over free for Cavan before added time somehow ignored by the officials.  Cavan not scoring for the first 15 minutes of the 1st half and 12 minutes before they scored in the 2nd half proved costly.

Kerry man was fouled as he was dipping the ball and he kept quiet as well in fairness to let Cavan turn it over on the 20m line.

You might well be right, but I was contrasting it more with the series of kickable scores Kerry got from him round the start of the second half. Anyway, Cavan could have rescued it on their own steam but typical of the age group found it hard to keep the heads at times. At least they raised a gallop near the end I suppose but largely they were architects of their own downfall there.

Everyone playing for the right to lose to Tyrone in the final, is still my opinion. Whatever about the others, they'd be too good for that Kerry outfit there today I reckon.

[gallsman]

Definitely. Cork in line for an absolute schooling here I reckon.

[twohands!!!]

It could be absolutely car crash stuff - I'll be very surprised if Tyrone don't utterly destroy them.

[Look-Up!]

Kerry the better team but we left it behind us.

[Blowitupref]

Flying start for Tyrone. 1-3 to no score after 4 minutes. 1-9 to 0-5 after 20 minutes.

Goal for Cork, fine catch and finish.  1-9 to 1-6 after 25 minutes.

Half time Tyrone 1-13 Cork 1-7

45 minutes played.  Tyrone 1-15 Cork 1-11

FT Tyrone 1-21 Cork 1-12.  Cork fell away in the final quarter and their slow start to the game didn't help their cause either.  Competitive in between

[nrico2006]

Are the rules the same for minor, u20 and senior?

[Rossfan]

Cork seemed to be happy with putting up a decent showing.
If we win v Louth I think we play Tyrone?

[rodney trotter]

Kildare look useful in the Tier 2 final against Meath. They beat Cavan in the final last year.

Kildare look useful in the Tier 2 final against Meath. They beat Cavan in the final last year.

Done well so far to hold a Meath team that scored 3-20 v Monaghan and 6-11 v Donegal in their two previous games. Goal before the break gives Kildare a decent lead.

Half time Kildare 2-7 Meath 0-3

Good fight back by Meath as Kildare hold on for the win.  Result Kildare 2-12 Meath 1-12
