Dublin manager Ger Brennan has named Con O’Callaghan to start in his side’s attack for Sunday’s All-Ireland SFC quarter-final showdown with Galway.

O’Callaghan struck 1-5 in the Dubs’ victory over Donegal last Sunday before limping off with an apparent hamstring injury in extra-time.

That left the Cuala clubman’s participation against the Tribesmen in doubt for this weekend, but Brennan has named him at centre half-forward for the last eight clash.

The only change to the capital men’s starting line-up sees Eoin Kennedy coming in at full-back for Nathan Doran, with the latter having suffered a suspected Achilles injury last time out.

Throw in at headquarters is at 4pm and the game will be shown live on RTE.
