Kevin had a good game, especially in the second half, where he turned over a lot of ball, ran well with it, supported well, and was accurate with all his passes. The first half though looked a bit in sixes and sevens as Cork seemed to have too many defenders, and were standing off their men too much.
In the Newspapers:
- Late Connolly goal puts Cork into Munster final as they survive Tipperary test – “Cork were much improved in the second-half with Paul Kerrigna, Kevin Crowley, Ian Maguire and Sean Powter spearheading their challenge” (the42.ie)
- Poor First Half Highlights Corks Problems On The Pitch – “Healy was at pains to point to positive elements of their second-half performance. Luke Connolly bagged 1-2 while Kevin Crowley had a very promising game at the back.” (extra.ie)
- Connolly steers Rebels out of tight Tipp spot
Some thoughs on Kevin on the Cork Football Discussion boards:
- RebelRed said “I thought Kevin Crowley had a fine game”
- Western Gael said “Kerrigan, Shields, Loughrey, Collins, Maguire, Crowley, Powter showed massive heart when the game was in the melting pot”
- Cork1990 said “…Kevin Crowley my MOTM …”
- Barry K O Bama said “At least we are seeing a few players come to the fore – Crowley, Powter and Hurley are the way forward. You can’t beat pace. Kerry also struggle against the fast running game. We’ve got to abandon the lateral passing game – even the likes of Waterford can handle it. Different game when lads like Loughrey, Hurley, Powter and Crowley are running at you.”
- Shabby said: Honourable mention too to Kevin Crowley who was actually good all through as well.
For what is worth ,well done to @OfficialCorkGAA senior footballers for that second 1/2 performance,I would think that Kevin Crowley was MOM
