TWO RED CARDS, six yellows, two black cards and 59 frees.

It’s fair to say that there was a furious bite to the action in Tralee yesterday as Kerry and Donegal squared off.

There was plenty debate over the incidents that prompted red cards being brandished towards Kerry’s Alan Fitzgerald and Donegal’s Leo McLoone in the first-half with four-time All-Ireland winner Paul Galvin amongst those to offer his views.

Galvin may have drawn flak for his comments from some Donegal fans but he defended his position last night.
