When news of Michael Murphy’s retirement broke, it inevitably led to his most iconic moment going viral on social media once again.
I am, of course, talking about his goal against us early on in the 2012 All-Ireland final. It helped Donegal on their way to a seven-point lead and though we rallied well, we never got closer than three points and lost by four in the end.
At just 23 years of age, Murphy lifted the Sam Maguire Cup as Donegal captain.
