    One from a free, one form play.

    Emmet Bradley has fired over a massive score and Glen lead by two!

    Kilmacud Crokes 0-3 Glen 0-4

    The fog is thick but the referee isn't missing these late hits.

    Jack Doherty was hit hard and high by Brian Sheehy, who is shown a yellow card for his troubles and is probably a touch lucky that wasn't more.

    Emmet Bradley restores Glen's lead.

    In bad news Doherty has to be replaced by Conor Convery.

    After his earlier miss, Shane Walsh brings us level once more with 19 minutes on the clock.

    Ironically, given the events of last year, these are probably the ideal conditions if you ever were going to put a 16th man on the pitch.

    Everyone will have their fingers and thumbs out to make sure that is the case today.

    Kilmacud Crokes 0-2 Glen 0-3

    There's a lot of action happening on the far side and as much as I'd love to tell you what's happening, I can't see a bit of it.

    The ball breaks from the fog and finds Shane Walsh, but he can only send his effort wide.

    Kilmacud Crokes 0-2 Glen 0-3

    O'Carroll is penalised again for taking down his man.

    It's the same result from the free as Tallon gets his, and Glen's, third point of the game.

    The Derry and Ulster champions lead for the first time.

    Kilmacud Crokes 0-2 Glen 0-2

    Conor Glass is smashed with a heavy hit by Rory O'Carroll, who was taking man marking a bit too seriously.

    Tallon lands the simple free and we're level with around 10 minutes on the clock.

    Danny Tallon gets Glen on the board with a well-taken effort.

    While Matt is struggling to see through the fog and is probably freezing in Newry, I'm sitting struggling to see through the fog watching on TV but at least I'm warm.

    Either way, not ideal conditions for playing a match or doing a live text, but we'll see how we go.

    Not long until we get started.

    The eyes of the GAA world are firmly fixed on this, but right now, those eyes aren't seeing much.

    As you've probably heard, there's a bit of fog about in Newry. It's been here all day, and at the moment, it's hard to see too far from the Pairc Esler press box.

    Driving down the road, we weren't awfully confident about this one going ahead, but it looks like we're good to go.

    And we can all be thankful. This is easily one of the most anticipated club games of recent times. Being scuppered by the midwinter elements would have been hugely disappointing.

  14. How Glen can gain revenge?published at 15:39 Greenwich Mean Time 7 January

    Kilmacud Crokes v Glen (15:45 GMT)

    So, what must Glen do to exact revenge on Kilmacud and book another big day out at Croke Park?

    "Possession," says Derry's 1993 All-Ireland winner Enda Gormley.

    "It sounds terrible but you can't score without the ball. Having possession and getting it into the scoring areas as quickly as possible.

    "And taking our chances. That's maybe the one thing we've had to improve on, in the earlier rounds in Ulster, we weren't taking our chances.

    "That was better in the Ulster final but we need to move it up a notch again and make sure we don't give away cheap frees. They're obviously going to score so much but it's about limiting that.

    "We're underdogs and I can understand why we are. However, we're only slight underdogs and we'll have a serious chance.

    "It'll take a big performance and we know that. Anything less than a really strong performance won't be good enough."

  15. 'It's history for us'published at 15:35 Greenwich Mean Time 7 January

    Kilmacud Crokes v Glen (15:45 GMT)

    Chasing revenge may well be uppermost in the minds of the Glen players, but they certainly haven't been saying as much in the build-up.

    "It's history for us, to be honest," Glen defender Michael Warnock said in the immediate aftermath of beating Scotstown in last month's Ulster final.

    "We met and made the decision that we weren't good enough on the day and we decided to park it.

    "That was our motivation for this year. We wouldn't have gotten out of Derry focusing on Kilmacud.

    "Look, that's what we're up against. It'll be a great story for the media considering what happened last year, but we'll just focus on ourselves."

    It is the rematch everyone wanted to see.

    On Sunday, Kilmacud Crokes and Glen will write the latest chapter of a burgeoning club rivalry that has already produced enough drama, controversy and emotion to fill a book.

    Not that Glen would ever want a book to be written about the events of 12 months ago. It was the biggest day in the club's history. It also turned out to be arguably the worst.

    Naturally, there was the pain of losing an All-Ireland final to Kilmacud by two points, but that pain soon turned to anger upon realising that the Dublin side had defended their goal with 16 players in the dying seconds at Croke Park.

    Those associated with Glen will tell you that Kilmacud were the better team on the day, but there is no question that the 2023 All-Ireland Club final will be forever remembered for the hugely contentious conclusion that dominated GAA headlines in the weeks that followed.

  17. What happened last year?published at 15:28 Greenwich Mean Time 7 January

    Kilmacud Crokes v Glen (15:45 GMT)

    After a dramatic three weeks of appeals and controversy, Kilmacud Crokes were eventually awarded the All-Ireland Club title after Glen withdrew their appeal over the Dublin team's 16th man.

    With Ulster champions Glen chasing a match-winning goal in the dying seconds in the Croke Park final on 22 January, Kilmacud made two substitutions but video showed Dara Mullin - one of the players substituted off - defending his goalline as Glen prepared to take a 45.

    And 17 Kilmacud players appeared on the pitch during the last play as Paul Mannion slowly walked towards the dugout area after being substituted.

    Glen had lodged an objection to the outcome of the match with the GAA subsequently ordering a replay after finding that Kilmacud had breached Rule 6.44 during their 1-11 to 1-9 victory.

    After Kilmacud counter-objected, Glen opted against further pursuing the matter, saying they did not believe the "conditions" for a replay existed.

    Kilmacud have now been formally confirmed as champions after agreeing to withdraw their open to the Central Appeals Committee and meeting with the GAA's Central Competitions Control Committee (CCCC) on Thursday.

  18. Time for revenge?published at 15:20 Greenwich Mean Time 7 January

    Kilmacud Crokes v Glen (15:45 GMT)

    Let's be honest, this is the one everyone wants to see.

    An All-Ireland Club semi-final is a big occasion anyway, but throw in a repeat of last year's final and we're in for a treat.

    Glen will be looking to get one over on holders Kilmacud Crokes and this will be one to savour at Pairc Esler.

    We'll have all the latest updates right here, so you won't miss a thing.
