It was claimed by Jimmy Keaveney, that Keith Barr's penalty miss was the turning point in the game. He was adamant that Barr had been instructed to take the point, but he went for glory and subsequently missed his chance. Although it is also claimed that the penalty miss was due to Mick Lyons of Meath running alongside Barr as he took the penalty, a penalty retake was never given.
