Twitter has been abuzz in the aftermath of Westmeath's historic victory over Meath.
Trailing by nine points with 20 minutes to go, Tom Cribbin's side produced one of the greatest comebacks Croke Park has ever witnessed to secure the Lake County's first championship win over their neighbours in 80 years of trying.
Here's a taste of what's been tweeted:

A 13 point turnaround, Westmeath out score Mth by 2-08 to 0-01 in the last 20 minutes. As astonishing a game as I've ever commentated on.
