St Brendan's Killarney ended their 24-year All-Ireland title drought with a 2-13 to 2-6 defeat of St Patrick's Maghera in an exhilarating Hogan Cup final at Croke Park.

David Clifford contributed 2-5 as 'Sem' denied Pat's their sixth title, more than making up for some of the pain caused by final heartbreak in both 2008 and 2010.

Clifford was unceremoniously jocked during his man-of-the-match interview, but not before the Killarney man had pulled a goal worthy of the grand stage out of his back pocket.

It was Clifford's second goal of the game as a strong finish saw the trophy stay in Kerry. A tumultuous and thrilling game saw Pat's miss a penalty in the fifth minute, with both captains also receiving their marching orders in the second half.

St. Brendan's has produced the likes of Gooch, Seamus Moynihan and John O'Keefe, and we might just have seen another name join an already-decorated wall of fame today.
