Well, that's it for All-Ireland semi-final weekend.

Heartache for Monaghan and Derry as Dublin and Kerry power into the All-Ireland final on 30 July.

It wasn't to be for the Ulster sides this weekend, but they certainly gave us plenty of entertainment and both Monaghan and Derry will feel they have a great platform on which to build in 2024.

We can't wait for another Sam Maguire decider between the two old foes. It's two weeks away and you'll be able to watch it across BBC Sport once again!

It's very fine margins here if one or two rubs of the green we'd be talking now about how Derry had overcome the favourites and how they put them in their place so to speak.

Tadhg Morley wasn't seen very much in the game. He usually gets time to get involved but Derry cut him out but Kerry didn't cut McKinless out.

His drive forward was a serious plus for Derry today. Only for that really good save, he had two very good goals.

Kerry boss Jack O'Connor speaking to BBC Sport NI:

"It was a huge battle. We were in big trouble at half-time. We got four out of the first five points in the second half but Derry kept coming. They were really dangerous.

"For a game that wasn't mean to be attractive I thought there was some great football in it.

"On another day, Derry could've won it. We've been watching them closely. They have a tremendous system going and have pace on the counter.

"Glen got to an All-Ireland Club final and that shows the health of football in their county."

It comes down to such fine margins. We questioned the Kerry support cast outside Clifford but Seanie O'Shea stepped up to score two points in that second half and that was just enough to get the Kerry team over the line. Outside of that the others were nowhere to be seen.

Three years ago Kerry wouldn't have won that match. Something has changed in that dressing room. They always seem to step up now. They won the crucial turnovers. When Derry get on that bus, they'll have huge regrets.

It's despair for Derry as their All-Ireland dream comes to an end.

Kerry v Dublin then.

A bit like Djokovic v Alcaraz at Wimbledon. The final everyone expected.

But I'll tell you what - Monaghan and Derry can hold their heads high after this weekend.

It's a cruel finish for Derry, who bow out of the semi-finals for the second year in a row.

They poured so much into this game but it wasn't to be.

Great teams find a way to win games. Kerry weren't at their best today but they found a way.

Now they have a showdown with Dublin to look forward to.

McGuigan kicks it in and it goes over the bar. He was just too close there to drop it in.

There's full-time. Kerry are through to the All-Ireland final!

Shane McGuigan, with ball - and Derry's hopes - in hand...

What are the chances of this happening? Nine out of 10 times this is cleared but who knows!

There's going to be a bit of a delay as Gareth McKinless receives treatment. The stretcher is out.

Philly McMahon's choice for man of the match, he's put in a monumental shift. This is a sad end to his day.

Gareth McKinless is charged down by Stephen O'Brien, who is booked.

Free for Derry. Last throw of the dice now. Now or never.

Ethan Doherty drops it in but Kerry punch clear and that's surely that.

Derry have one last chance to attack...

Derry must push up now but it's going to create gaps in their defence.

Brendan Rogers tries to find Conor Glass in the square but the ball doesn't fall his way and it's a Kerry kick-out.

Frustration for Derry.

Lachlan Murray fists it across the goal but it doesn't result in a goal for Derry and Kerry have their hands on the ball.

And Seanie O'Shea finds himself in acres of space. Easy score. Three-point lead for Kerry.

Big ask for Derry now.

There's still time for Derry.
