I have to admire both teams huge workrate

Selfish point by Tyrone forward there,with free man inside for a goal.Kerry would have buried it.

Horrible call by the umpire there. Never a 45

Yes,shocking call.Kerry get a score out of it.

Tyrone just don't have the forwards

Doing well everywhere else

Everything I hate about Gaelic football is on show here but I won't lie I'm loving it, great stuff from both teams.

Whoever handles the ball better and holds their nerve will win. Hate to see all that basketball movement on the edge of the D.

Great game, two committed and skilful teams going toe to toe in rotten conditions, if you are not enjoying this then you are dead from the neck up! First few scores of second half are crucial, a Kerry goal will change the whole dynamic.

Exhilarating stuff. Poor quality and the weather making it hard, but by God you can't take your eyes off it. Tyrone will be happier to at this stage as I thought Kerry edged that half and Tyrone found it harder to get their scores. Never a 45, umpire has to be sure to give that, hope it doesn't come down to a decision like that. Definite black card though. I would question the extra half minute played at the end of the half, ref could have blown it up before when ball was in midfield

Kerry aren't really allowed to tackle. Nice bit of diving going on with Tyrone too. More and more like soccer with the gesturing for cards to be shown. Horrible stuff.

Excellent match so far.

Skill level on both sides has been very high and the game has been a lot more open than I thought it would be .

Tyrone have missed 3 or 4 scoreable chances and could come to regret that.

Correct decision made to black card Marc O'Se.I thought Deegan would bottle but he got it right in black carding him.

Tyrone putting in a huge shift.That open goal chance would have knocked Kerry for six.That the forward took the easy option,shows why Tyrone have scored so few goals recently.Great game for intensity,passion and courage.

Good match considering the conditions. Tyrone spurned a great goal chance but have been very impressive. If the game continues like this I think Tyrone will win it. Kerry haven't had a goal chance yet.

Who is supposed to be the cynical team again? Genuinely confused

Not exhilarating , not fascinating , but when I woke up this morning had a feeling this type of game was on the cards , yes theres workrate , yes there have been some nice points but far from classic fare .
Thought it would be tight , but have said Kerry all week , no reason to change mind , that goal chance could prove cruical as how on earth Tyrone didnt score from that two on one is mindboggling .
Big players fairly annoynomous so far .

I hope Kerry don't win by a point cause that was never a 45. 15 for Tyrone squares it to McCurry that's a tap in goal for Tyrone.

I'm sorry I hate saying it but the ref is giving Kerry everything

Hmm, I think so too Clondalkindub. Free given against Tyrone in the first half for slipping and handling the ball on the ground. Not given against Kerry there a few minutes ago. Need consistency. Also very handy free given on the 21, which Cooper converted
