Watch: All-Ireland Football semi-final - Kerry and Derry level after ...

Kerry 1-1 Derry 1-3

But Derry are looking good!

Shane McGuigan's first of the day puts the Ulster champions two clear.

A nerve-settler for Derry's main man.

Kerry 1-1 Derry 1-2

Jason Foley takes the ball on the run and thumps one to the right and wide.

Kerry's shooting isn't on-point just yet...

Kerry 1-1 Derry 1-2

Paul Cassidy takes his shot early and...it's good!

Cracking score. Derry are working their opportunities well.

They lead by one.

Kerry 1-1 Derry 1-1

Kerry are happy to knock it around a bit after a breathless start to the game.

They're masters at working space for scoring opportunities but David Clifford's attempt drops short into Odhran Lynch's gloves.

Kerry 1-1 Derry 1-1

Adrian Spillane has the chance to nudge Kerry ahead with a free on the left but it's not his best effort...

Kerry 1-1 Derry 1-1

What a start to this game, incredible!

It really does show you how big this pitch is at Croke Park and it doesn't matter how defensively strong you are, once the ball is moved quickly it's very hard to get into shape.

Kerry 1-1 Derry 1-1

Bad news for Derry as Padraig McGrogan's day is done.

He went down after scoring that point and can't continue. Padraig Cassidy replaces him.

Kerry 1-1 Derry 1-1

So, with Padraig McGrogan down injured, a chance for a quick recap.

Derry's goal came after Brendan Rogers' shot was blocked, with McKinless on hand to bundle the ball home.

But Kerry stormed right up the other end and Seanie O'Shea teed up an easy reply for White.

Barely 30 seconds between the goals.

Kerry 1-1 Derry 1-1

Padraig McGrogan nails a cracking score for Derry to level matters.

Deary me. What a start.

Immediate response from Kerry as Gavin White palms to the net from close range!

Hectic.

Gareth McKinless scores for Derry!

Kerry 0-1 Derry 0-0

Derry are penalised for over-carrying and Kerry look to break quickly, but David Clifford has fouled Chrissy McKaigue.

That was a bit of a panic for Derry...

Kerry 0-1 Derry 0-0

As expected, Chrissy McKaigue is marking David Clifford but he couldn't stop the Kerry star for that opening score.

Kerry 0-1 Derry 0-0

David Clifford opens his account for the day!

Derry might want to slow things down a touch here.

Kerry 0-0 Derry 0-0

Now it's Kerry's turn!

Gavin White finds himself in front of the Derry goal but his shot is charged down by Odhran Lynch and the last touch comes off a green and gold shirt.

Big let-off for Derry. We could've had two goals already.

Kerry 0-0 Derry 0-0

Early chance for Derry!

Ethan Doherty storms forward and passes to Niall Loughlin, whose goal-bound shot is blocked.

Frantic start.

Kerry 0-0 Derry 0-0

Joe McQuillan throws the ball in and away we go!

Kerry v Derry (16:00 BST)

Jack O'Connor has won four All-Ireland titles across three spells as Kerry manager.

One more will take him to within one of Jim Gavin's haul with Dublin.

And if you want a measure of the task facing Derry this afternoon, O'Connor has won all six of the All-Ireland semi-finals he's been involved in as Kingdom boss.

Four of those six wins led to titles while two - 2005 and 2011 - were followed by losses in the final (by Tyrone and Dublin respectively).

Kerry v Derry (16:00 BST)

The pre-match parade is underway.

Only a few minutes until throw-in...

Kerry v Derry (16:00 BST)

The last time these two met in the championship was 19 years ago.

It was the 2004 semi-final. Jack O'Connor was in his first year as Kerry boss, while Mickey Moran was the Derry manager.

Enda Muldoon scored a goal for Derry while Paddy Bradley hit 0-6, but it wasn't to be as Kerry surged clear with a virtuoso second-half display to win 1-17 to 1-11.

They went on to beat Mayo in the final.

Will today produce a better outcome for the Oak Leafers?
