Kerry County Board chairman Tim Murphy believes that, considering the seriousness of the Covid-19 situation in the Tyrone camp, the GAA were left with no option but to postpone Sunday’s scheduled All-Ireland football semi-final until the following Saturday.

Speaking on Radio Kerry’s Terrace Talk, the Brosna man admitted that they were made aware of what was unfolding in Tyrone last Friday night and, while it’s undoubtedly a disappointment to manager Peter Keane and his players that the game has had to be rescheduled, Kerry will not lose their focus in the extra week.
