It's hard to imagine that a goalkeeper would wonder 14 metres out of his goal without Jim McGuinness' imprimatur.

To build on that, their goal, the first goal that they scored, it was sequenced at three minutes.

They held the ball for three minutes and that was a turnover, Dylan Ganey.

And it showed maybe...

probably reflected how casual Kerry were in some respects Dylan Ganey goes to put a pass on his right foot which is closer to the player that challenges him he could have easily put it on his left foot he was passing it backwards he puts it on his right foot

and Michael Langan and Zinn.

And about 38 or 40 passes later, Conor O'Donnell is scything through.

So that's three minutes in one sequence that they don't have a ball.

Max Campbell fists another one, his third point at one stage later in the half.

That's a minute and a half of sequence of play where Kerry don't have the ball.

And the last point from Finbar Rorty to make it 3.20.

That's a two minutes and 15 seconds or something like that build-up

Another huge chunk of play when Kerry are just chasing and they're spinning round.

They're not getting tackles in.

They're a presence, but Donegal are putting the ball around.

Conor O'Donnell has the ball five or six times in that build-up alone.

So I'm sure after a while, a team goes cold when they've so little ball, they're so little, they become so disengaged at that point.

And Donegal's ability to hold on to the ball is reflective of your own team.

At times, there was goals that Dublin created, you know.

More than a decade ago, but I think even teams are even better now for their ability to hold on.
