It was arguably the biggest game in the history of the All-Ireland football qualifiers since their inception in 2001, with the heavyweight forces of Kerry and Tyrone going toe to toe in Fitzgerald Stadium.
We were live from Killarney and went minute by minute to record all the action.

16.38 – No late Kerry changes as of yet to report but some speculation going around that Kieran O’Leary may start. Here’s the line-up as we have it at the moment.
KERRY SF: Brendan Kealy (Kilcummin); Marc Ó Sé (An Ghaeltacht), Aidan O’Mahony (Rathmore), Shane Enright (Tarbert); Tomás Ó Sé (An Ghaeltacht), Eoin Brosnan (Dr Crokes), Killian Young (Renard);  Anthony Maher (Duagh), Bryan Sheehan (St Mary’s); Paul Galvin (Finuge), Declan O’Sullivan (Piarsaigh Na Dromada), Donnchadh Walsh (Cromane); James O’Donoghue (Legion), Colm Cooper (Captain) (Dr Crokes),  Kieran Donaghy (Austin Stacks).
16.54 – Tyrone will start as selected. They’re currently on the field warming up while Kerry have just re-emerged from the dressing rooms and received a rapturous reception from their supporters.
17.20 – There is some serious needle creeping into this game with flash points developing all over the pitch. Ronan McNamee has been involved in a few of them and the Tyrone defender has just been booked with Kerry’s Paul Galvin joining him in being shown a yellow card. 19 minutes elapsed and we already have five yellow cards. The home supporters are not happy with some of Coldrick’s decisions so far.
17.54 – It’s been as physical contest as we expected with the action spilling over frequently in the early stages. Seven yellow cards – four for Tyrone and three for Kerry – ensured David Coldrick was very busy in the first twenty minutes. But the action has calmed down somewhat approaching half-time as Kerry have begun to take a grip on proceedings.
18.06 –
Kerry 0-10 Tyrone 1-5: 44 mins – A bizarre and dramatic goal but one that has vaulted Tyrone back into contention. Conor Gormley and Joe McMahon did tremendous work to engineer the opportunity, and after McMahon’s shot was bravely blocked by Brendan Kealy, the ball rebounded off a player into the net. It appears to have touched Kerry defender Tomás Ó Sé last.
