‘There has to be a concerted effort to score on the opposition kick-outs,’ says Peter Canavan as he lays out his case with stats and video analysis on Sky Sports.

Cian O’Neill’s been asked Sky’s Dave McIntyre where he thinks Kildare can hurt the Red Hand this evening: “We focus very much on ourselves,” he says.
“They’ve kind of flitted between different types of game plans and they have the players who can do that. Pretty much the last number of weeks we’ve just focused on how much we can improve match by match.”

Dick Clerkin is the Sky Sports co-commentator and he reckons St Conleth’s Park is looking mint with the pitch ‘lush’. The42 GAA editor, Fintan O’Toole is there for us and will have a report on the whistle as well as plenty of reaction from the respective camps.

Here’s the anthem.
Kieran Donaghy, Peter Canvan and Senan Connell are all backing Tyrone to get out of there with the crucial win. But the consensus too is that this will be tight.

Darren McCurry is in acres of space as he receives the ball and he knocks it with little fuss before Kildare respond through Fergal Conway. 10 minutes to half-time and the crowd realise their side need to narrow this gap before the break.
29 Jun 2019
5:33PM
Cian O’Neill has, it seems, been sent to the strand. Tyrone were awarded a 45 by an umpire who adjudged goalkeeper Mark Donnellan caught a high ball but let it go over the line. Tyrone missed the kick but the Kildare boss still had a stern word for the officials.
As I type, he’s shown away from his bench but not in the stands.
Frank Burns tries a shot from an acute angle, it bounces off the post and goes over.
Just what they needed going in. Keith Cribbin hands it off to Kevin Feely, and he fires home.

Adam Tyrell, who missed a free in the opening minutes, makes no mistake now and Kildare are within two points.
Peter Harte responds quickly however, as I type. We’re into injury time.

Darren McCurry adds another for the visitors and Tyrone have weathered the storm.

Fergal Conway, who’s been very bright in this first half, takes on the Tyrone defence and kicks an excellent point. We’ll have four additional minutes.

Another great score from Kevin Feely, who’s now scored 1-2 for the Lilywhites. Peter Harte reciprocates though with a beauty.
Kildare are down to 14 men as O’Grady — who looked injured anyway – is dismissed. Cathal McShane kicks over the free that was subsequent to O’Grady’s foul.
Tough, tough task for the hosts now. Tyrone 1-15 Kildare 1-9.

Tommy Moolick, who’s only on, kicks a badly-needed point for Kildare.

Neil Flynn makes no mistake from a free and it’s back to four. Kildare need to go full press now and ‘go for broke’ according to Dick Clerkin and Billy Joe Padden. Tyrone win the kickout.
29 Jun 2019
6:29PM
A silly foul and Peter Harte converts the free for Tyrone. Peter Kelly, though, keeps the scoreboard ticking over for Kildare. 1-17 to 1-13.
No one will want to draw Tyrone after that impressive performance. It’s the end of the road for Kildare this year and it’ll be interesting to hear from Cian O’Neill in a moment.
