Tyrone take on Kerry in the All-Ireland minor football final in Croke Park today and the Kingdom, for once, go into an All-Ireland football final without the favourites tag firmly around their necks.

The All-Ireland minor football cup is to be renamed the Cormac McAnallen Cup, in memory of the Tyrone captain who died from a heart condition earlier this year.

KERRY minor coach Sean Geaney and his selectors have kept faith with the team that ousted defending champions Laois for Sunday's All-Ireland final against Tyrone.

IT'S going to be a very busy weekend for Laois teenager Donal Brennan.
