Watch: Diarmuid Connolly produced a point-scoring masterclass to fire Vincent's into Dublin SFC final

The Dublin star was instrumental in his side progressing past Ballymun Kickhams.

DIARMUID CONNOLLY WAS in outstanding form to ensure St Vincentโ€™s booked their place in the Dublin SFC final for the fourth consecutive year.

Although the game was not broadcast live, highlights have now emerged from an enthralling encounter as Vincentโ€™s edged past Ballymun Kickhams by a single point.

Albert Martin secured the decisive point to separate the northside rivals, but it was the sublime finishing from Connolly that stole the show, with four exceptional scores.

    Two off the left, two off the right. Itโ€™s an incredible skill to be two-footed, and that good with both feet. Similar to Ronnie Oโ€™Sullivan playing left-handed from time to time. That first score is ridiculous.

    With so many players from other counties involved itโ€™s understandable

    Dublin county board providing video clips on their website, makes it easy for other outlets to share

    So much more could/should be done with the club game, tg4 do a great job but surely some kind of highlights & discussion programme would work.

    Heโ€™s the best forward in the country but he should score more.
