JACK O’CONNOR HAS made one change to his Kerry Minor football team for this week’s Electric Ireland Munster Football Championship semi-final against Cork.
It’s very much as you were for Kerry after their quarter-final win over Clare but there is a straight swap at corner back where Austin Stacks’ Jack Morgan replaces Tom O’Sullivan.
Evan Cronin is unavailable due to a broken collarbone and is replaced by Darren Casey on the replacements bench.
Wednesday’s clash at Austin Stacks Park in Tralee is a repeat of last year’s final when Kerry, who went onto win their first All-Ireland Minor Football Championship in 20 years, defeated the Rebels by four points.
Just as it was twelve months ago, the stakes couldn’t be higher with defeat marking the end of the season for either side.
The other semi-final sees Tipperary meet Clare at Semple Stadium on the same night with throw-in at 7.30pm in both games.

Not seeing her club form in a green Jersey. I think a break from the captaincy and all the hype and media attention that brings would do her the world of good. Just get back to playing football for Ireland, as she is doing so well for Arsenal.
She’s such a magical player and an inspiration to so many young girls. I think she’s truly wonderful I would dearly love to meet her some day.
