More or less sums it up. Fitz's equaliser v Armagh in 2000 was incredible though, tis often forgotten.

You'd have to include Mickey Sheehy's goal at the end the 1987 Munster final, which technically resulted in a drawn game.

Too strict AS. Star's equalizer in 2011 was a bomb, when we were on the ropes, from right out on the left touch line. It was a total saviour. We were in rag order. Ultimately it is not remembered because of the result but in the context of pressure to deliver a score, it's up there with any of them.

Probably Kieran's finest point he's ever kicked. |

Probably Kieran's finest point he's ever kicked. There was a Munster final, a good few years ago now, and it was level pegging coming towards the end. KD kicked a monstrous point from the hospital side into the dressing room end. As far as I can recall Sean O'Sullivan kicked a similarly terrific point to make it a two point victory. I can't remember the year. Can anybody recall that match and the year? |

Remember Sean O'Sull's point with his left foot. Was outrageous regarding distance and the difficulty of the kick with his weaker foot. HE executed it like it was a 20 metre free. Serious score

Mick ODwyer punched a point from about 21 yards out to draw the 1972 final v Offaly.
John Egan scored a last second goal to draw the 1974 league final.
Didn't Colm kick the equalizer in the 2010 drawn MF v Cork with about 4 dragging out of him

And top equaliser v Kerry? Eamonn McEneaney in 85 deserves a mention.
