From bad to worse.
The All-Ireland final has gone from bad to worse for Galway, with Ronan Glennon getting sent off for a head-high tackle on Limerick’s Mike Casey.
It was has been one-way traffic for the majority of the game, with the Treaty putting in a masterclass of hurling at Croke Park.
A comeback looked unlikely, and it now seems impossible for the Tribesmen.
