Jasti, by the introduction of half -time of the poody cliford, scored 14 unanswered marks – including a couple of two -pointers – effectively to kill the competition for spare with 15 minutes.

In terms of shot conversion, Kerry scored 27 times (32 points) from 36 shots, while Armagh scored 18 (total 24 points) with 34 attempts.
