GAA:A tight hamstring has cost Paul Galvin a starting place in Sunday's All-Ireland football semi-final against Mayo at Croke Park.

Galvin suffered a recurrence of the injury during a final training game last weekend, so Kieren O’Leary has been called up to corner forward in the only change to the side that beat Limerick in the quarter-final.

The Dr Crokes man's starting role means Darran O’Sullivan is now listed to start in Galvin’s right wing forward position, alongside Declan O’Sullivan and Donnchadh Walsh.

O’Leary replaced Darran O’Sullivan against Limerick.
