Louth manager Gavin Devlin was keeping his feet firmly on the ground after his side’s sensational All-Ireland Round 2A win over Armagh.

The Wee County snatched victory from the jaws of defeat – and a place in the All-Ireland SFC quarter-finals – thanks to Sam Mulroy’s buzzer-beater goal.

“This journey that we go on, you can’t get too high and you can’t get too low,” Devlin told reporters on a dramatic day in Inniskeen.

“Particularly after the low moments, you have to accept them. Because you’re going to get setbacks and if you set yourself up that you’re unbreakable or you’re unbeatable, and then you get beaten, well then the wheels come off.

“It’s got to be one game at a time and know that you’re on a journey. I honestly knew after the first Dublin game that we would reset and go again. Because I keep saying it, these boys are made of the right stuff.”
