Donegal 3-20 (29) | Kerry 2-10 (16)
Looks big.
It was.
Effort count: Donegal 96 | Kerry 71
That’s not a stat
that’s control of the game.
Donegal didn’t just have more
they used it better:
✔️ 32 attacking plays → 31 shots → 19 scores
✔️ Efficiency: 61%
✔️ Nearly every attack ends in a shot (31/32)
✔️ Turnovers: 5 (v 13)
Kerry actually had decent moments…
but kept giving it back.
And that’s the killer:
+3 attacks
+8 shots
+8 scores
That doesn’t happen by accident.
Kickouts didn’t save Kerry (59% v 60%)
Accuracy didn’t hurt them (58%)
They just weren’t in the game enough.
Donegal:
win it → use it → score.
Kerry:
win it → lose it → chase.
Different levels of control.
Different outcome.
