The Kildare manager spoke to local press after the game in Croke Park.

Kildare narrowly missed out on a place in the Leinster semi final, following a 0-14 to 0-12 defeat against Dublin in Croke Park yesterday evening. 

The Lilywhites led by 0-8 to 0-6 at half time and at one stage led by four points in the second half before Dublin came to life. 

The Dubs took the lead for the first time in the match inside the final ten minutes and kicked on from there to win the game. 

They will now play Louth in the final after Mickey Harte’s side defeated Offaly in the other semi final, after extra time. 

There was a positive to take from yesterday for Kildare, as other results meant that they will compete in the All Ireland/Sam Maguire competition. 

They will be 4th seeds alongside Donegal, Cork and Westmeath. 

The 12 other teams in the Sam Maguire are Dublin, Kerry, Mayo, Galway, Monaghan, Tyrone, Armagh, Derry, Louth, Clare, Roscommon and Sligo. 

Here's Kildare manager Glenn Ryan:
