Paul Walsh points out that Sunday's All-Ireland MFC final wasn't the first time this season that Kerry'r minors had to dig deep.

Peter Keane's charges came from behind to defeat Galway in an entertaining decider at Croke Park, having also hit injury-time winners in the Munster final against Cork and All-Ireland semi-final against Monaghan.

"We were four down at half time, having been eight behind at one stage. This team, all year, has come back from everything," Walsh comments in The Irish Examiner.

"We were down to Cork. They got a goal in the last minute. We came back. Three weeks ago against Monaghan, they went ahead in the last few minutes and we came back. We showed great heart those two days and we showed it again on Sunday. The hard work we've put in all year came to fruition."
