Kieran O'Connor is making headlines - for all the right reasons!
In a fairytale ending, Ballygunner are the All Ireland Club champions for the first time in history.
A Harry Ruddle goal in the dying seconds saw the Gunners beat reigning champs Ballyhale by a point in Croke Park on Saturday, and the whole county, and beyond, has been celebrating with them since.
One of the big talking points though, has been the fabulous commentary of our own Kieran O'Connor partnered by Eoin Murphy. We always knew Kieran was a top- class commentator, but now the whole world knows it too.
He and Eoin's reaction to the Ruddle goal has gone viral, after Victor, a tweeter synched up the TG4 footage with the WLR commentary:

As well as being widely shared and retweeted on social media, the Kieran O'Connor / Eoin Murphy commentary has made it onto other national publications such as Joe.ie, Balls.ie and The Irish Examiner, to name but a few.
The commentary was also replayed on the Second Captains podcast.
