KILDARE manager Pat Sullivan said reaching the quarter-finals of the TG4 All-Ireland Championship is the stuff of dreams — but they are not going to settle for that after seeing off Armagh by 1-12 to 1-10.

"It's hard to put into words," said Sullivan.

“Nobody outside of our circle gave us any chance. We drew with teams and beat teams in the league but we still given no chance. We had a lot of anger and this is a really good squad. Our first year in Division One, there's no player in this circle has ever been in an All-Ireland quarter-final.

“So for them to achieve what they've achieved is a dream and we're not there to make up the numbers, we're there to give it everything and we're delighted to be there.”

The sides were deadlocked at 0-6 apiece after the opening half.
