Kerry manager John Sugrue has named his team for this evening's Munster U20FC semi-final clash with Limerick at Mick Neville Park.

Sugrue's starting 15 shows nine players that featured in the Kingdom's All-Ireland MFC final victory over Galway two years ago including forwards Paul Walsh, Patrick Darcy, Killian Falvey, Ruaidhri O Beaglaoich and captain Paul O’Shea, who is a first cousin of senior skipper David Clifford.

Goalkeeper Marc Kelliher, defenders Owen Fitzgerald and Dan McCarthy and midfielder Darragh Lyne also featured in the county's most recent Tom Markham Cup success. Kelliher's understudy Deividas Uosis is reportedly set for a switch to AFL outfit Brisbane Lions later this year.

Meanwhile, the last four tie will take place in Rathkeale instead of the LIT Gaelic Grounds which has been deemed unplayable.

Kerry (Munster U20FC semi-final v Limerick): Marc Kelliher; Owen Fitzgerald, James McCarthy, Dan McCarthy; Luka Brosnan, Dylan Casey, Sean O’Brien; Darragh Lyne, Michael O’Gara; Paul Walsh, Patrick Darcy, Killian Falvey; Ruaidhri O Beaglaoich, Sean Keane, Paul O’Shea.

Subs: Deividas Uosis, Alan Dineen, Sean O’Connell, Colm Moriarty, Tadhg O Siochru, Dylan Geaney, Sean Quilter, Eddie Horan, Jack O’Connor.
