Sunday’s second All-Ireland football semi final between Dublin and Kerry at Croke Park has sold out, with the remaining tickets being distributed among the clubs in the counties.

Kerry are also in action in the minor semi-final where they take on Kildare, that match throwing in at 1.30pm.

The senior game at 3.30pm is a repeat of last year’s All-Ireland final, which Jim Gavin’s side won 0-12 to 0-9 in atrocious conditions.

Sunday’s game will be the third full house at Croke Park this year following the Division One and Two Finals on April 24th, which also featured the Laochra commemoration of 1916, and the double-header of quarter-finals featuring Mayo’s win over Tyrone and Dublin’s victory over Donegal.
