Kerry unchanged as Cunningham returns for Tyrone

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.

The Munster champions made hard work of defeating Laois, surrendering an eight point lead before hanging on for a two point win, 1-10 to 1-8.

They last won the Tomas Markham Cup 10 years ago.

Tyrone have made a couple of changes from the team which defeated Down in the semi-final.

Skipper Marc Cunningham and midfielder Shane O'Hagan have been recalled after missing the win over the Mourne County through injury.

Cunningham, a veteran of three minor campaigns, will lead the side from centre-forward.

Aidan Cassidy, who made his first start as Cunningham's replacement last time out, moves to corner-forward, with Stephen Donaghy the player to lose out. Gerard McCaughey makes way for O'Hagan's return at midfield.
