Meanwhile, having been moved from midfield into the Kilkenny full forward line, Cian Kenny scored every time he looked at the posts. Similarly, something came off Martin Keoghan every time he touched the ball, including Kilkenny's first goal, and at half-time, with three points between the teams, that was the only difference. Kilkenny were clinical and Dublin were not.
And at this level of hurling, as Dublin discovered in a soul-destroying second half, you just don't get away with that kind of thing. The suspicion was there at the break that, having hurled well in the first half, Dublin had missed the boat and they were about to be taught a lesson.

By the end, it was double scores, it was a familiar feeling for Dubs and, on the walk out of Parnell Park, it was a passing comment from one fan to another that summed the evening up.
'We have no goal threat. The backs weren't bad but as soon as they clear it, it's straight back in on top of them.'
