Kildare give Louth a sharp dose of reality with clinical Leinster SFC ... (Independent.ie)

Not even a decorated manager with the All-Ireland Midas touch can guarantee you success when the championship bar is raised.

Louth’s misery was compounded by a second yellow for Grimes on 66 minutes. From there on, Kildare pressed ever further clear of a flagging Louth. Some more Flynn magic created a goal chance that Jimmy Hyland blazed over. Another lost kickout led by Alex Beirne eased Kildare into a 0-7 to 0-0 lead with the game just 15 minutes old. Louth: S Mulroy 0-5 (1m, 1f), C Grimes 0-3 (2m), C Early, C Byrne, T Durnin, J Murphy 0-1 each. But here, from the opening bell, a yawning gulf was evident. But already they needed goals and twice they were denied in that first half: advancing full-back Bevan Duffy arrived at the end of an incisive move only to be repelled by ‘keeper Mark Donnellan (13 minutes), and then another slick moved ended with Mulroy feeding Liam Jackon for a fisted finish ruled out for a square ball (28 minutes).
