Ruben Davitt puts on an absolute clinic against Kilkenny

Jack O'Toole

Galway look like they may have another star forward for the future on their hands with Ruben Davitt making a huge impact in the Tribesmen’s All-Ireland minor final with Kilkenny on Sunday.

Davitt struck early in the first-half after swooping in on a missed long ball to take one touch on the run before finishing into the back of the net from there.

The corner forward then scored a superb point early in the second-half when he took down a long diagonal pass before lifting the ball over one defender, holding off another and firing the ball over the bar for a point.

The Oranmore/Maree forward has been known within Galway GAA circles for sometime but is quickly announcing himself to the Irish public as a player for the future with some spectacular play against Kilkenny.
