Dublin renew their rivalry with Kerry as the Boys in Blue aim to lift their first All-Ireland crown since 2020.
The two counties have long been the dominant sides in Gaelic football, lifting Sam Maguire 68 times between them. That's one more title than every other county in Ireland has won between them.
Of course, Kerry have the edge with 38 wins to the Dubs' 30 and the men from the capital will want to close that gap by sealing victory this afternoon. Such a blockbuster tie has seen Croke Park packed out with fans eager to see the titanic clash.
And it has even brought out some famous faces with strong GAA pedigree. Ireland captain Seamus Coleman was spotted outside the ground today.
Coleman played for Donegal at under-16 level before dedicating himself to soccer. But being a first cousin of Dubs manager Dessie Farrell, we're hoping the Everton man is cheering on the Dubs today.
He met up with new Late Late Show host Patrick Kielty and comedian and broadcaster Dara Ó Briain outside the stadium. Both funnymen represented their counties at minor level with Ó Briain turning out for the Wicklow hurlers and Kielty winning an All-Ireland Minor medal with the Down footballers in 1987.
