Kerry had the breakthrough in the 38th minute when Murphy converted from the spot, and that put the visitors in control for much of the night in Limerick. With the away side protecting a narrow advantage, Treaty were left chasing the game and searching for a way back into it.
The turnaround arrived after the break. Oyenuga pulled Treaty level in the 67th minute, changing the feel of the contest and lifting the home side for the closing stages. Once the score was back at 1-1, Treaty pushed for a winner while Kerry tried to hold on and steady the game.
Lynch delivered the decisive moment in the 84th minute, completing the comeback and settling the result at 2-1. It was a sharp swing in a match that had seemed to be drifting Kerry's way after the penalty opener.
The stats behind the night were simple enough: Kerry won the first-half score, but Treaty took the decisive moments late on. The highlights all came in the key phases - Murphy's opener, Oyenuga's leveller and Lynch's late strike - and the summary was a home side recovering from one goal down to take all three points.
