All Ireland Quarter Final 30 July 2011
A match that either team could have won.
This game started slow and the first half was a dreary defensive affair. But the second half came alive as the match swung one way and then the other, eventually needing extra time to decide a winner. What began as a forgettable affair ended up as one of the most memorable contests of the championship.

Is This the Oldest Video Clip of GAA ?
Silent Movies from 1926 as Kerry play Kildare.
The 1926 Football Finalists were Kerry and Kildare. This match in the clip was played on 6th Sep (a Monday) and ended in a draw : Kerry 1-03 Kildare 0-06. A last minute point by Bill Gorman (Kerry) forced the draw. After the game, Kerry's centre back Jack Murphy put his clothes back on without taking off his playing gear, and died of pneumonia before the replay on 17th October (a Sunday) which Kerry won 1-04 to 0-04
