18:39

One from either Derry, Galway, Dublin or Kerry will lift the Sam Maguire Cup next month. Thanks for reading.

A routine win for Kerry as Mayo didn't quite rise to the occasion. It wasn't as dramatic as the Galway-Armagh game but the Kingdom won't care about that.

18:34

18:04

Matthew Ruane on target over his own shoulder. With 25 minutes left, there's just a point between the teams. This one could go either way. Kerry have not impressed so far.

17:23

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Kerry 0-5 Mayo 0-5

17:20

But the fifth duly arrives courtesy of the jinking Sean O'Shea. Cillian O'Connor hits back quickly.

17:16

17:12

Wide!

Paul Geaney drags a very presentable Kerry goal opportunity wide of the near (left) post. Ten minutes since the Kingdom's last score.

17:10

Of concern to Kerry management and supporters is the fact that David Clifford is not moving well.

17:09

Slicer!

What a finish from Aidan O'Shea as he arrows over one of those flashy outside-of-the-boot efforts with the left boot from the Hogan Stand side into Hill 16!

17:08

O'Connor is happy to go down under pressure from Tom O'Sullivan but he pulls the free right and wide.

17:05

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Kerry 0-2 Mayo 0-2

David Clifford calls the mark and strokes over a precise left-footed free. Gavin White adds Kerry's second.

David Gough is the man in the middle. Mayo won the toss and are attacking the Hill. Cillian O'Connor points a first-minute free in the rain.

16:59

Team news:

Kevin McLoughlin starts instead of James Carr for Mayo. National Anthem rings out at Croke Park. Kerry are in their traditional green and gold today, Mayo in black.

16:16

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final full time after extra time: Galway 2-21 Armagh 3-18

Almost inevitably, this astonishing All-Ireland quarter-final will be decided by a penalty shoot-out!

16:14

16:11

At the end of a patient passage of play, Finnerty drags his shot wide.

16:10

Armagh retreat as Galway press for the lead point with three minutes of extra time left...

16:08

Goal!

It's the game that keeps on giving! McDaid slides his shot low to the Armagh net - 2-20 to 3-16 but sub Eoin Woods improvises wonderfully to half-volley an equaliser off the outside of his right foot!

16:05

Goal!

Disastrous defending from Galway as they again fail to deal with a dropping, bouncing ball - under O'Neill's scuffed shot - and Grugan palms it to the net - 3-16 to 1-20! Armagh lead by two!

16:00

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 1-20 Armagh 2-16 (half time in extra time)

15:55

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 1-19 Armagh 2-15 (extra time being played)

15:47

The rain has stopped and the sun is out as the football resumes. Galway attacking the Davin End.

15:46

Red cards!

Captains Sean Kelly and Aidan Nugent are both sent off before the action resumes. Serious paperwork going on in the middle of the pitch. Both teams can replace their sent-off players before extra time begins. Both will start with the full complement.

15:42

Padraic Joyce is out on the field having strong words with David Coldrick. The players are back out. Kerry and Mayo will start 45 minutes late - at 4:45.

15:37

With the rain spilling down in Croke Park, the players have yet to re-emerge. Armagh will of course be back to 15 men for extra time. But will anyone from either side be dismissed for their roles in that fracas when they come back out?

15:29

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final full time: Galway 1-17 Armagh 2-14 (extra time to be played)

Down to 14 men and six points adrift in injury time, Armagh come back from the dead with two late goals and an astonishing Rian O'Neill free in the 80th minute to force extra time!

15:25

Armagh have won a free-in about 50 metres out under the Cusack Stand in the 79th minute...

15:24

Panic in the Galway defence as Armagh desperately seek an equaliser. The westerners win a free-out. We're in the eighth additional minute...

15:22

Goal!

Unbelievable! Chaos reigns in Croke Park as Turbitt reacts quickest to blast the ball first time to the back of the Galway net - 2-13 to 1-17. A point between the teams with 75 minutes played!

15:21

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 1-17 Armagh 1-13

Not quite over yet. Morgan booked for a foul on Comer, who subsequently points from play while Walsh and Morgan wrestle on the ground. Walsh had the Armagh man pinned to the ground.

Goal!

Nugent palms the breaking ball to the Galway net in the second of EIGHT added minutes - 1-13 to 1-16!

15:17

My ball!

15:15

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 1-15 Armagh 0-13

Paul Conroy drops over a delightful point from the right wing on the run and Galway look home and hosed with two minutes of normal time left to be played.

15:12

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 1-14 Armagh 0-13

McDaid flicks the ball up and is tripped by Burns; Walsh arrows over the free from the hands, between the sticks and into the sea of orange on Hill 16. Rafferty then saves a Comer drive, with the ball diverting over the bar.

15:09

Two points down, Armagh are down to 14 men for the last eight minutes.

15:09

Red card!

A thumping collision between McCabe and Tierney, whose head is cut. The Armagh No.6 - who initiated the contact with an attempted but mis-timed shoulder - is shown a straight red.

15:06

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 1-12 Armagh 0-13

O'Neill picks McHugh's pocket and substitute Conor Turbitt's fisted effort drops on top of the crossbar and goes over with twelve minutes remaining.

15:03

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 1-12 Armagh 0-12

Rian O'Neill effortlessly strokes over a free and it is very much in the melting pot here with 56 minutes gone. With Rafferty raiding, Greg McCabe wins another Armagh free, which Grugan misses.

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 1-9 Armagh 0-10

Galway follow up the goal with a quickfire Walsh point. Comer is booked for senselessly taunting Rafferty and Armagh reply with points from Nugent (advanced mark - stealing a yard or 20!) and Campbell.

14:48

Goal!

Breakthrough for Galway as Johnny Heaney double-palms Tierney's handpass to the net from close range seconds after Tierney's powerful left-footed shot hit the black spot on the crossbar - 1-8 to 0-8!

14:45

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 0-8 Armagh 0-8

The second half has started identically to the opening stages of the first, with everybody camped inside the Armagh half. This time, Galway find a way through and Finnerty fires them in front for the second time. Raiding corner back Conor O'Neill replies with a fisted point.

14:23

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final half time: Galway 0-7 Armagh 0-7

The half ends level in a welter of excitement as Galway counter with Rafferty out of his goal, but Tierney's effort for a point drops short. All still to play for here. Armagh started brightest but the Tribesmen have worked their way into the match.

14:21

Wonderful fielding by Armagh goalkeeper Rafferty close to his goal - he's now inside the Galway half!

14:20

Block!

Nugent goes for goal but Kelly blocks his shot with his left knee. Galway counter and Tierney ties up the scores for the second time in the 34th minute. Poor wide from Murnin in response.

14:18

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 0-6 Armagh 0-7

The softest of frees is awarded for a slight push on Dylan McHugh. It's curled over left-footed by Walsh from wide on the right on the 13-metre line.

14:13

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 0-4 Armagh 0-7

Grugan nails another free after Campbell is taken down by McDaid.

14:06

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 0-4 Armagh 0-5

14:05

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 0-3 Armagh 0-5

Matthew Tierney whips over a superb Galway point from distance - that's one way to penetrate the wall of orange! An Armagh attack then breaks down and Galway's patient, pensive counter culminates is a great Rob Finnerty point. Jarlath Og Burns replies with a fisted point after good work by Rian O'Neill.

14:00

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 0-1 Armagh 0-4

Aidan Nugent collects Conor O'Neill's pass and slots a lovely score. The Connacht champions have not settled.

Poor Galway defending allows Rory Grugan time and space to drop over a trademark point with that trusty left boot.

13:55

13:50

All-Ireland SFC quarter-final: Galway 0-1 Armagh 0-0

Galway held the ball for three minutes but moved it laterally, going nowhere, then fouled it. Armagh attack and it's wide from Aidan Nugent. Galway's next attack is more direct and Damien Comer clips over a point off his left instep on four minutes.

13:46

Game on!

David Coldrick tosses the leather in. Armagh are playing towards Hill 16. Free to Galway after two seconds.

13:45

12:32

Connacht champions Galway face the on-song Orchard County at 1:45, followed at 4pm by the fascinating clash of Munster kingpins Kerry and a Mayo team that simply refuses to go away.

12:31

While yesterday's quarter-finals were both of a decidedly one-sided nature, a couple of much closer contests are in prospect on what promises to be a landmark occasion of high drama on Jones Road.

12:29

With Dublin and Derry safely through to the semi-finals, we'll find out who their respective opponents are going to be when Galway take on Armagh and Kerry lock horns with Mayo in front of a sell-out crowd at GAA HQ.
