The Meath jubilee team were introduced to the crowd, 25 years on from their All-Ireland triumph in 1999. Sean Boylan’s side defeated Cork in the final by 1-11 to 1-8, with their legendary manager alongside the team today.
There was a wonderful moment out on the pitch with the Meath players paying tribute to the 80-year-old, forming a guard of honour around him and applauding him in front of the crowd.
GAAGO are also running an analysis show before the match with Marc Ó Sé, Paddy Andrews, Michael Meehan and Aaron Kernan among those taking part.
Padraic Joyce and Kieran McGeeney are out there having a chat, all smiles and sharing a joke. It’s the calm before the storm at this stage.
Jones’ Road is full of orange and maroon with supporters from both sides congregating outside the Hogan Stand. Former Footballer of the Year and Leitrim manager Andy Moran is among those arriving for the big game.
Padraic Joyce was the star of the show kicking 0-10 that day. Can he join the illustrious club of All-Ireland winning players and managers today?
His opposite number Kieran McGeeney is hoping to achieve the same piece of history, having captained Armagh to their only ever title in 2002.
It’s All-Ireland senior football final day and we’ll be taking you through every moment of the action right here from the pre-match build-up, the team news, right through the game and into the fall-out that follows.
