1986 All-Ireland final: Kerry 2-15, Tyrone 1-10
This was a time when Ulster football was considered a distant cousin to the majesty of Kerry, even when the Kingdom's golden age was ending.
But such was Tyrone's initial dominance of the 1986 All-Ireland final against Kerry by half-time their fans began to panic about not having accommodation in Dublin that night. They needn't have worried as a seven-point lead turned into an eight-point pounding in the final 20 minutes.
The crucial moment was a Tyrone penalty, which was sent over the bar by Kevin McCabe. From the kick-out, Kerry whizzed downfield and Pat Spillane finished the move with a goal that reduced the arrears to four points. A Mikey Sheehy goal completed a nightmarish capitulation.
It was the last hurrah from a great Kerry team who had taken Sam Maguire home eight times in 12 years. An 11-year drought followed.
Moy's Plunkett Donaghy was Tyrone's class act back then but the loss of Eugene McKenna and John Lynch through injury coincided with the late collapse.
Moy send another marauding midfielder out against Kerry on Sunday in Seán Cavanagh along with clubmates Philip Jordan and Ryan Mellon.
KERRY: C Nelligan; P Ó Sé, S Walsh, M Spillane; T Doyle (captain), T Spillane, G Lynch; J O'Shea, A O'Donovan; W Maher, D Moran (0-2), P Spillane (1-4); M Sheehy (1-4, three points from frees), E Liston (0-2), G Power (0-1). Sub: T O'Dowd (0-2) for O'Donovan.
TYRONE: A Skelton; J Mallon, K McGarvey, J Lynch; K McCabe (0-1, from a penalty), N McGinn, P Ball; P Donaghy, H McClure; M McClure (0-1), E McKenna, S McNally (0-2); M Mallon (0-4, three frees), D O'Hagan (0-1), P Quinn (1-1). Subs: S Conway for Lynch, S Rice for McKenna, A O'Hagan for M Mallon.
The managers' records
Mickey Harte is in his third season in charge and Sunday will be his 25th championship match as manager.
Mickey Harte's intercounty record: Played 24, Won 16, Drew 5, Lost 3 (Donegal 2004, Mayo 2004, Armagh 2005).
Jack O'Connor is in his second season as Kerry manager and has yet to experience defeat in the championship.
Jack O'Connor's intercounty record: Played 12, Won 11, Drew 1, Lost 0.
Man of the match
The favourite for RTÉ man of the match, not surprisingly, is Colm Cooper at 6 to 1. Cooper picked up the award after his wonder goal in last year's final. The second favourite is a slight surprise: Tomás Ó Sé is 8 to 1, ahead of Stephen O'Neill and Seán Cavanagh at 10 to 1 (all Paddy Power).
There are interesting odds for several other players. Declan O'Sullivan is on offer at 16/1 and Owen Mulligan at 14/1, but we like Brian McGuigan at 25/1.
Broadcasting rights
Ger Canning might be interested in the following as he is 12 to 1 to incorrectly identify the first goalscorer.
Here are some commentary clichés on offer from Paddy Power. Bets pay off only if the commentator uses the exact phrase between the referee's whistle to start and finish each half.

Head to head
Brian Dooher v Marc Ó Sé
By Irish Times analyst John O'Keeffe
"Although Marc Ó Sé is named at corner back and Brian Dooher is expected to line out at half forward, both would be wasted by staying true to the numbers on their backs.
"Dooher never sits still anyway. Almost like a child in the playground, he follows the ball wherever it goes. It makes him an asset in defence and recently he has started contributing to the attack more as well.
"Against Dublin in the drawn game he had a poor match yet still kicked one of the points of the championship and never stopped working.
"Marc is the ideal man to follow him to the corner flags. This task suits someone with the stamina levels of the youngest Ó Sé brother, and when you shadow Dooher you cover every blade of grass. It should ensure the roaming Tyrone captain doesn't hurt Kerry unduly."
Down minors unchanged
Down minor football manager Mark Turley has selected the team that overpowered Offaly in the semi-final on August 29th for Sunday's meeting with Mayo in the All-Ireland final at Croke Park.
Captained by centre back James Colgan, the first Down side to contest a minor final since 1999 includes hugely talented forwards in 16-year-old Ciarán Brannigan and Martin Clarke.
They make a second appearance in Croke Park this year after narrowly losing the Ulster final to Armagh, who Mayo beat in the quarter-finals. Down are still considered favourites in a strange year for minor football as no provincial winner made it to the All-Ireland semi-finals.
Mayo manager Eugene Ivers will announce a team from a fully fit panel this morning.
DOWN (MF v Mayo): M McAllister; G Magee, C Garvey, H Magee; G McCartan, E McConville, K Duffin; J Colgan, P Fitzpatrick; D Lavery, M Clarke, S Grant; C Brannigan, R Kelly, P McCumiskey.
