The presentation of the Bishop Moynihan Cup to South Kerry captain Bryan Sheehan after yesterday's Kerry SFC final replay had to be moved after a woman seated nearby took ill.

The spectator collapsed just as the presentation was about to be made in the Fitzgerald Stadium stand. At that stage, providing medical attention to the woman took priority, so the presentation was wisely moved to the pitch.

Meanwhile, South Kerry manager John Sugrue has praised his players for the manner in which they responded to man of the match Sheehan's black card at the start of extra-time.

"Bryan got sent off earlier on in the year and fellas stepped up to the plate," he noted in the Irish Examiner.

"We've had different fellas on different days. I knew it in our hearts that we would be hard to crack because we had different fellas stepping up on different days. Today was no different.

"It's been a saga, an absolute rollercoaster. I'm just delighted for that bunch that they have got their reward. They've been unbelievable ambassadors all year, hard-working, everything you want out of a bunch of players."
