Kerry played Dublin in Wembley back in 1976.
DID you know Kerry played Dublin in Wembley Stadium in 1976? Well, footage has appeared online that proves it.
British Movietone posted a newsreel to YouTube recently of the momentous match between the two great powers of Gaelic football just as their famous rivalry of the 70s, was taking off.
The game was a low scoring affair with the Dubs winning 0-7 to 0-10, just as they beat us in that year’s All-Ireland Final.
Footage of the match – which must have been a rare treat for the many Irish in London at time – is backed up with characteristically clipped narration, bordering on condescending.
But in fairness that adds to the film’s charm.
Watch it below…
