Does it present any advantage in an All-Ireland final replay to have scored the equaliser in the drawn game? A look back on the last six drawn football finals shows honours even in that regard... In 1972, Mick O'Dwyer's leveller was in vain when Kerry lost the replay heavily to Offaly while Edwin Carolan's 'wonder score, in the 1952 drawn All-Ireland final for Cavan, paved the way for the last of their five successes in the subsequent replay over Meath.
