18:09

That's all from me on yet another enthralling day of GAA championship action. Thanks for checking in.

18:07

Here is the draw for the semi-finals: Dublin V Meath and Kildare V Westmeath.

18:07

Leinster SFC full time: Kildare 1-15 Offaly 0-13

Kildare join Dublin, Meath and Westmeath in the Leinster semi-finals, while Offaly's decent year comes to an end.

18:05

Leinster SFC: Kildare 1-15 Offaly 0-13

Kevin Feely gives the Kildare men a bit of much-needed breathing space. Yellow card for Kevin Flynn in the 73rd minute.

18:03

Leinster SFC: Kildare 1-14 Offaly 0-13

Farrell thumps over his eighth score - he's a class act. Can the Faithful County pull this out of the fire?

18:02

Leinster SFC: Kildare 1-14 Offaly 0-12

Flynn brings his tally for the day to a match-winning 1-7; the fantastic Farrell (0-7) replies.

17:57

Black card!

Kildare are down to 13 men for the last five minutes as Hyland is black-carded. Niall McNamee pops over a free and Offaly are now back within five!

17:51

Red card!

Kildare are down to 14 men as Ryan Houlihan is shown a second yellow. Farrell converts the free and Offaly are back within seven.

17:49

Goal!

Kildare can start getting ready for a semi-final. The excellent Neil Flynn turns on the afterburners and finishes to the net with aplomb - 1-13 to 0-8! Double scores!

17:46

Leinster SFC: Kildare 0-13 Offaly 0-8

Hyland takes his point after good work by Ben McCormack to put five between the teams

17:44

Kildare outscored their opponents by six points to three in the third quarter...

17:42

Leinster SFC: Kildare 0-12 Offaly 0-8

Neil Flynn floats over a superb free and Kevin Flynn then hits the woodwork. Tense and frantic in O'Moore Park, where Neil Flynn claims one from play on 51 minutes. Four between them at the second water break.

17:37

Leinster SFC: Kildare 0-10 Offaly 0-8

Any notions that Kildare were going to run away with this are dispelled by a Farrell score but Aaron Masterson replies. A dangerous Offaly attack is stopped in its tracks as Bernard Allen is unceremoniously fouled and Farrell converts the 20-metre free.

17:33

Leinster SFC: Kildare 0-9 Offaly 0-6

The Faithful County needed a score and Anton Sullivan has just delivered it.

17:32

Leinster SFC: Kildare 0-9 Offaly 0-5

Jimmy Hyland makes it four without reply for Jack O'Connor's charges.

17:31

Leinster SFC: Kildare 0-8 Offaly 0-5

17:29

Ooh!

Offaly create a goal chance but Eoin Carroll's effort goes wide.

17:28

Leinster SFC: Kildare 0-7 Offaly 0-5

Neil Flynn's free doubles the difference two minutes after the resumption.

17:19

Munster SHC full time: Tipperary 3-23 Clare 2-22

A chorus of boos greets the final whistle - no doubt provoked by the turning point in this absorbing clash. Tipp are through to meet Limerick in the Munster final and Clare go into the Qualifiers. But that penalty and sin bin decision at the start of the second half turned this match on its head and will be the talking point for days to come.

17:17

Could Clare have been awarded a penalty there? James Owens is not interested. Cathal Malone fires over his second point - he has been brilliant!

17:15

Munster SHC: Tipperary 3-23 Clare 2-20

Kelly (1-8) arrows over a Clare free in the 70th minute but there is surely no way back for Brian Lohan's luckless men.

17:12

Leinster SFC full time: Wexford 0-7 Dublin 0-15

The holders advance to the Leinster semi-final draw and will return to action in two weeks. Brave effort from Wexford.

17:11

Leinster SFC half time: Kildare 0-6 Offaly 0-5

Some tussle in Portlaoise, where the sides have been level four times but Mick O'Grady's late point gives the Lilywhites a narrow interval lead.

17:09

Ulster SFC full time: Armagh 4-15 Antrim 0-14

Goals the difference as the Orchard County advance to an Ulster semi-final meeting with neighbours Monaghan. This was Antrim's first defeat of the year but their season is over, alas.

17:07

Goal!

Tiernan Kelly hits Armagh's fourth deep into added time - 4-14 to 0-14!

17:06

Munster SHC: Tipperary 3-21 Clare 2-17

John Conlon replies with a terrific point from distance.

17:06

Substitute Willie Connors stretches the gap out to nine and Clare reply with a Kelly free from in front of the posts.

17:01

Save!

Quilligan denies Forde a fourth Tipp major. That's his third brilliant stop today!

17:00

Munster SHC: Tipperary 3-18 Clare 2-14

Seven the margin at the second water break. Clare have been hard done by here - the penalty was a joke and they conceded 2-4 while McCarthy was in the sin bin. Unfortunately, James Owens' inexplicable decision has ruined this game. But the referee can't get all the blame as the rule itself was never needed.

16:57

Leinster SFC: Kildare 0-4 Offaly 0-4

Level in the midlands as Neil Flynn makes no mistake from a free.

16:51

Goal!

Conor Turbitt for Armagh, who are pulling away from Antrim now - 3-11 to 0-11!

16:50

Leinster SFC: Kildare 0-3 Offaly 0-4

Cian Farrell's beauty separates the sides at the first water break.

16:49

Goal!

Another goal for Tipp as Callanan's mis-hit point attempt deceives Qulligan and goes to the net - 3-15 to 2-13! Clare respond with a point from Ian Galvin.

16:47

Disgraceful!

Can't get over that decision to award Tipperary a penalty. Aidan McCarthy slid in to Jake Morris close to the sideline and caught him. Tipp were awarded a penalty by James Owens and the Clare man has been sin-binned. That was not a foul to deny a clear goalscoring opportunity in a million years! What a sickener for the Banner!

16:44

Leinster SFC: Kildare 0-2 Offaly 0-3

A Paddy Dunican '45' had the Faithful County back in front.

16:43

Goal!

The law, as they say, is an ass! Tipp are awarded a ridiculous penalty for a foul nowhere near the Clare goals and Forde belts it to the Clare net - 2-13 to 2-12! Callanan follows up with a point.

16:39

Leinster SFC: Wexford 0-3 Dublin 0-9

Cormac Costello guides over a free and Dublin increase their lead to six.

A thumping victory for Meath, who are the second side through to the Leinster semi-finals! James Conlon got the fourth goal.

16:33

Leinster SFC: Wexford 0-3 Dublin 0-7

After a lengthy passage of keep-ball from the holders, Howards nails a point off the outside of the boot.

16:32

Ulster SFC: Armagh 1-8 Antrim 0-8

The difference between Division One and Four was obvious there as Antrim were caught in possession and Armagh countered, leading to a Greg McCabe point. But what a reply from Conor Murray!

16:29

Ulster SFC: Armagh 1-7 Antrim 0-7

Grugan settles for his point this time as the gap goes out to three two minutes after the restart.

16:28

Leinster SFC: Meath 3-19 Longford 0-11

James McEntee grabs himself another point as Meath ease into the last four.

16:25

Munster SHC half time: Tipperary 1-13 Clare 2-11

That awesome team goal means the Banner County lead by the minimum at the end of a pulsating first half in Limerick!

16:23

Goal!

What a finish to the first half from Clare! It started with magnificent last-ditch defending from Paul Flanagan and Rory Hayes and they worked the ball upfield brilliantly to Kelly who sticks it in the net - 2-11 to 1-13!

16:20

Save!

Quilligan makes his second stunning save of the game, denying Callanan this time. From the resultant '65', Forde doubles the gap - 1-13 to 1-11!

16:19

Munster SHC: Tipperary 1-12 Clare 1-10

Seamus Callanan with the set-up play to give O'Dwyer the chance to go for his second. At the other end, Kelly points from almost in the stand!

16:18

Munster SHC: Tipperary 1-11 Clare 1-10

Forde gets his second from play and sixth in total.

16:16

Leinster SFC: Meath 3-16 Longford 0-9

Sixteen between them with 15 minutes remaining in Navan, where James McEntee bagged the latest point.

16:15

Munster SHC: Tipperary 1-10 Clare 1-10

What a stylish reply from Aidan McCarthy to Forde's free. Level for the sixth time!

16:12

16:06

16:01

Leinster SFC: Meath 2-12 Longford 0-8

Hickey gets forward to ensure that Meath maintain their ten-point advantage.

16:00

Goal!

Stunning ground hurling from Tipp midfielder Michael Breen, who takes three perfect touches, the third an emphatic finish to the Clare net - 1-6 to 1-7!

15:58

Munster SHC: Tipperary 0-6 Clare 1-7

Forde gets Tipp's side of the scoreboard moving again with an exquisite sideline cut. A handling error by the Clare goalkeeper then presents him with a gift (free).

15:47

15:45

Centre back Ciaron O'Hanlon gets forward to leave four points between the teams. The Saffrons counter with an Odhran Eastwood free.

15:43

14:52

Save!

Conor Gleeson with a stunning finger-tip save to deny Brian Stack a last-gasp Roscommon goal!

14:49

Red card!

Laois' day goes from bad to worse as Kieran Lillis is shown a second yellow card and therefore a red!

Westmeath now have one foot in a Leinster semi-final! David Lynch propels them into a 2-15 to 1-10 lead!

14:43

14:39

Connacht SFC: Roscommon 0-10 Galway 1-10

A Ciaran Murtagh free keeps things in the balance with eleven minutes left. This game could really do with an exciting climax!

14:32

Connacht SFC: Roscommon 0-9 Galway 1-10

Substitute Cathal Cregg fists a close-range point to close the gap.

14:22

Connacht SFC: Roscommon 0-8 Galway 1-8

Tierney nails a Galway '45' and the gap is three. Not sure how Roscommon expect to score with their full-forward line inside their own half...

14:16

Ooh!

Comer could have had a Galway goal if he'd managed to stay on his feet. He should have had a '45', though, but the umpires got their call wrong. Finnerty fists a Galway point, however, and they lead by two again.

14:14

Connacht SFC: Roscommon 0-8 Galway 1-6

Paul Kelly gives Galway a good start to the second half, nailing a lovely point from out the field. As conditions deteriorate, Donie Smith strokes over a delightful Rossies '45'.

Laois lead by one at the interval, Colm Murphy registering the last score of an entertaining first half.

Level again as Heslin adds to his tally three minutes from the break.

14:04

13:45

Conor Hussey reduces the arrears and Walsh pulls a very difficult free wide at the other end.

Post!

13:36

Leinster SFC: Laois 0-1 Westmeath 0-1

John Heslin is fouled and he sticks over the free himself.

13:35

Injured!

Ahead of the first-half water break, the Rossies lose debutant midfielder Eddie Nolan to injury. A Diarmuid Murtagh shot is contentiously waved wide.

13:34

Leinster SFC: Laois 0-1 Westmeath 0-0

A Donie Kingston free opens the scoring at Tullamore.

13:32

Connacht SFC: Roscommon 0-2 Galway 0-2

Roscommon captain Enda Smith bursts through a packed Galway defence to equalise. The visitors had 14 men inside their own half again ... not sure that is the traditional Galway style?...

13:30

Connacht SFC: Roscommon 0-1 Galway 0-2

Stunning strike from distance by Damien Comer, who is making his first championship start in three years. The Rossies were back in numbers there, too.

13:27

Wide!

A goal chance for Peter Cooke as the Tribesmen come out of their shell but he drags his shot wide of the near (left) post, under pressure from Niall Daly.

13:26

13:20

Connacht SFC: Roscommon 0-1 Galway 0-1

Diarmuid Murtagh is played through on goal by his brother Ciaran but opts to take his point with a VERY high kick. Conditions are very difficult and the rain is spilling down again.

13:15

Game on!

Wet and windy in The Hyde as Joe McQuillan throws in the ball!

13:03

Team news:

Looks like both teams will start as selected. There were concerns over Shane Walsh who has a slight hamstring problem but the Galway captain is set to start.

13:00

The rain is giving way to sunshine but the surface is going to be slippery after that downpour and that should add to the entertainment.

12:57

With the rain hammering down in Dr Hyde Park, the stage is set for what should be an absorbing clash between Roscommon and Galway. Throw-in is just over 15 minutes away.

11:43
