Two changes for Galway and one for Waterford before All-Ireland U21 final

Semple Stadium is the venue for tomorrow’s game.

GALWAY HAVE MADE two changes for tomorrow’s Bord Gáis Energy All-Ireland U21 hurling final against Waterford.

Turloughmore duo Vincent Doyle and Sean Linnane are both handed starting berths at right half-back and left half-forward respectively.

The duo came on as substitutes in the semi-final win over Dublin with Fintan Burke and Cian Burke the players to make way in the team selected by manager Tony Ward.

Conor Whelan has been named to start at full-forward despite being an injury doubt after damaging his shoulder in that victory over Dublin. Whelan is joined in the attack by fellow senior panellists Brian Molloy and Eanna Burke.

There’s also been a change in the Waterford team with goalkeeper Jordan Henley returning between the posts instead of Gavin Power.

Tom Devine is also named to start at centre-forward despite being an injury doubt after hurting his ankle.

Throw-in tomorrow afternoon at Semple Stadium is 5pm.
