GAA

The Cork and Kerry teams have been named ahead of Saturday's Munster final replay.

Cork manager Brian Cuthbert has named an unchanged side from a fortnight ago in Killarney, but Kerry make four changes in total.

Aidan O'Mahony and Paul Murphy return to the Kingdon defence, while Anthony Maher starts in midfield and Paul Geaney comes into the full-forwards.

Fionn Fitzgerald, Peter Crowley, Stephen O'Brien and Barry John Keane are the players to make way, while the home side have also been boosted by the inclusion of Paul Galvin among the subs.

The match will be live on Off The Ball this Saturday night.

Meanwhile, Tyrone make two changes for Saturday's All-Ireland qualifier against Tipperary.

Tiernan McCann and Darren McCurry have both been restored to the Tyrone attack at the expense of Richard Donnelly and Barry Tierney.

The Limerick U21 hurlers have secured their place in the Bord Gais Energy Munster final after a dramatic two-point victory over Tipperary tonight at the Gaelic Grounds.

After an end-to-end contest, in which both teams finished with just 14 men, Limerick held-out to win by 3-16 to 3-14 to advance to a Munster final showdown against Clare.

SOCCER

There was disappointment for both Shamrock Rovers and UCD in tonight's Europa League qualifiers.

Shamrock Rovers could not make home advantage count as they were beaten 2-0 by Odd Ballklubb in the first-leg of their second round qualifier.

Meanwhile, UCD were narrowly beaten 1-0 in Slovakia by 10-man Slovan Bratislava, who had Nicolas Gorosito sent off for a high - and late - tackle on Robbie Benson.

The Students could not take advantage of the chances that fell their way before Bratislava grabbed an 84th minute winner.

GOLF

Dustin Johnson holds the outright lead after the opening day of the 2015 Open Championship.

Johnson's superb 7-under par 65 today at St Andrews has left him with a one shot lead over a group of six players.

World No 2 Jordan Spieth is on 5-under, but Tiger Woods will have to battle to survive the cut after a 4-over par 76.

Greystones amateur Paul Dunne is the best placed of the Irish players after an impressive 3-under par round of 69 this morning.

DOPING

Irish sprinter Steven Colvert has been given a two-year ban for doping.

The Irish Sports Council and Athletics Ireland have confirmed that the former Irish 200m champion has committed a doping violation after his sample showed traces of recombinant EPO.
