That was intense and surreal, wasn't it? Nearly 24 hours on and the last few minutes of the match still seem unbelievable. If Kildare were unlucky to lose, were Down lucky to win? Hard to say.
Here's a look-back on the match via Youtube.
Firstly, of course, the controversial square ball. Interesting to read that Coulter admitted to infringement after the match.

Now for two interesting views of those agonizing final moments. This one's a bit drawn out and shot far from the goalmouth, but it is worth watching just for the noise and bedlam after the kick bounces back.

]Secondly, this shorter clip. It's a better quality lens and from a better angle and it's also nice to get some of the commentary from the stands. "There's too many" and "It's impossible" were sentences uttered all around the country just before the kick grazed the post.

]Afterwards, the Down flag was flying. Note the shirtless Down supporters at the bottom righthand of the screen around the .40 mark

Fair play to Down and Kildare for lighting up a Sunday afternoon.
