Dublin proved that they are not quite washed up, after a sensational extra-time win over Donegal earlier today.
The Sky Blues were clawed back in normal time, as Michael Murphy knocked over a last-kick point after a hugely controversial free-kick that was moved up 50 metres.
What followed was a big melee at Croke Park, which saw two players from each side blackcarded.
However, that was not the only mad moment of the game, as some eagle-eyed viewers spotted one of the Dubs players going in for a kiss on one of his rivals, which a Donegal teammate did not take kindly to.
