Why Kerry won, in one sentence. Kerry won the middle 8, having been obliterated there two weeks ago. #GAA — Jamie Wall (@Jamwall7) July 18, 2015
Better team won. Kerry got stuck in. Work to do but great win. Ciarraí abú!!! 👌🏼💪

Paul Geaney’s goal in the second half was the key moment in the match
Great angle of the Paul Geaney’s goal that has helped @Kerry_Official build this lead in @MunsterGAA final! pic.twitter.com/p0OzTbcRM5

Crikey, shades of the 1978 All Ireland Final there. Goal for Kerry. #GAA

There was almost unanimous disagreement about who should have won man of the match
RTE need to have a chat with themselves on this James O’Donoghue love-in. Man of the match Martin Carney? Stop please. David Moran maybe… — Tony Leen (@tonyleen) July 18, 2015
What a performance by David Moran.Like Mayo last year. Anthony Maher not far behind. Real grit from Kerry.

I must have been watching a different match i thought David Moran owned the game — tony o connor (@tonyoconnor17) July 18, 2015
What game was Martin Carney watching? David Moran was surely Man of the Match… Good win in horrendous conditions…
— Maurice Sheehan (@Maurisek32) July 18, 2015
As a consolation for David you can vote for him to be this week’s player of the week, which will put him in the running for player of the month.
RT to vote for @Kerry_Official‘s David Moran as our latest http://t.co/Lw4gYD3Qcx Football Player of the Week! #GAA pic.twitter.com/6o4UhnBOOW

Despite the absence Paul Galvin is still as popular as ever
That roar you may have heard? Paul Galvin is playing Championship football for @Kerry_Official again.

I hate Kerry but man I love Paul Galvin — Pobsickle (@Padraig_OBrien) July 18, 2015

Of course the weather was one of the main topics of conversation
Well I’m in Killarney and its raining sideways. Let’s go Kerry — Paul Commane (@PCommane) July 18, 2015
Just saw the @Kerry_Official lads parade the trophy through Killarney on the Ark #wettestfinalever — Oisin Langan (@oisinlangan) July 18, 2015
Lethal weather down Killarney
— Zebedy (@JamieOFlynn) July 18, 2015
The torrential rain will suit Cork. Sure they love a good flood down Patrick’s Street every January. #Killarney #GAA #Kerry #munsterfinal — Oliver Callan (@olivercallan) July 18, 2015

There was a bit of hop ball over Kieran Donaghy’s fumbled acceptance speech as gaeilge.
@tomas5ky @osemarc2 I should have listened to ye boys a bit more over the years. I won’t lie, major panic as the microphone came my way 😂 — Kieran Donaghy (@starryboy14) July 19, 2015
