Cork's Conor Lane has been confirmed as the referee for the All-Ireland senior football final between Dublin and Tyrone.
Sean Hurson from Tyrone will be the man in the middle for the All-Ireland minor final as Galway look to halt Kerry's pursuit of five in a row.
This will be Lane’s second senior final to officiate. The Banteer/Lyre club man was in charge for the 2016 final between Dublin and Mayo. That final ended in a draw, with him showing six yellow cards and one black card to James McCarthy.
Lane has also refereed the 2013 minor final between Mayo and Tyrone, that year’s senior Connacht final (and again in 2016), and the club All-Ireland final in 2016 which Dublin club Ballyboden St Enda’s won.
