Wexford Twitter account’s breathless updates sum up the scale of what Davy Fitzgerald has just done

If he's not the messiah, he's a very, very talented boy.

Davy Fitzgerald extended Wexford's winning streak to six games on Sunday when they booked a place in the National Hurling League semi-final - and they only did it by beating bloody Kilkenny. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848573990063001601 The Clare man is struggling to dampen expectations in the Model county, such is the start he has enjoyed with the team since taking over for the 2017 season and Sunday's result over a Brian Cody-inspired Kilkenny outfit is only going to see the Wexford faithful clamour some more. Fitzgerald and his team walked right into the Cats' den at Nowlan Park, looked them square in the eyes, and beat them in a knockout game to march on through to the last four. It bodes well for Wexford who are on a Leinster championship collision course with the provincial champs who they will meet in the semi-final should they make it that far.

But Sunday was about this game. One game. A game that would prove that they can mix it and one which probably gave up the ghost on the manager who insisted beforehand that he just wanted his team to be competitive against the might of Kilkenny. Well, Wexford were competitive and more so and it was all summed up brilliantly by the county's official Twitter account. We didn't get your common or garden recounts of what was going on in Kilkenny or just a point by point update. No, we got passion. We got emotion. Frustration, elation and all the twists and turns of a true Gael totally engrossed in one game of hurling like it was the only thing that mattered in this world today. We got real, honest musings. We got the GAA and all that is good about it in 140 character dosages. From the very start, Kilkenny stopper Eoin Murphy was producing all sorts of miraculous shapes across his goal to deny Wexford. It was an aspect of the game which the visiting county's social media user failed to believe and then accept. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848550870048534529 They could've dealt with one. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848556496061386752 Two might've been negotiable. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848568867790225410 They're proud of Lee Chin in Wexford. His physique. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848557829157945344 His skill. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848570703507009539 The updates would drift freely in and out of English and as Gaeilge. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848553434781560832 https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848560127506604033 The descriptions are much more evocative than the norm. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848564647343120384 https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848556028149075968 The nerves are dangling from every tweet. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848566635099291652 The penalty drama was palpable. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848566835717038081 Then it just became a true GAA fan totally lost in the moment. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848567005695406080 Thankfully those moments were lit up with bouts of Conor McDonald magic. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848567655271452674 Even the biased opinions are better than nothing. This guy was feeling it. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848569523909349377 They didn't abdicate responsibility though... https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848568396484673536 Before long, players were elevated to almost myth-like heroes. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848569977020055556 Dare we dream? https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848572056434352128 Absorbed. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848573016829296640 Clarification came later. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848573142377406465 The size of the fight in the dog. https://twitter.com/OfficialWexGAA/status/848573463266832384 Brilliant stuff, folks. This was gripping and damn well fitting of another monumental Fitzgerald achievement.
