2 Kildare players named in the official GAA Team of the Week following win over Offaly

Saturday evening's victory over Offaly in the Round 3B qualifier in St Conleth's Park was achieved through a team effort for the most part, but two of the Kildare players have been singled out for their performances and included in the official GAA Team of the Week.

Tommy Moolick struck 1-1 during a virtuoso performance in midfield for the Lilywhites, as he showed some brilliant fielding abilities, along with some intelligent attacking play that saw him register his, and Kildare's, second goal of the championship. He has been named in midfield in the TOTW alongside Cork's Alan O'Connor.

Niall Kelly also provided a telling contribution on the scoreboard, splitting the post four times in an incredibly economical shooting display. He has been named at full-forward, alongside Derry's Mark Lynch and the Player of the Week, Robbie Smyth of Longford.

Mayo- who Kildare face in the next round of the qualifiers- have one representative in Diarmuid O'Connor.
