McIVER PLACES HIS FAITH IN YOUTH AS ALL-IRELAND CHAMPS KERRY COME TO CELTIC PARK

TEENAGER Terence O’Brien has been named in Derry’s starting line-up for their clash with All Ireland champions Kerry at Celtic Park on Sunday.

Derry need a home win to avoid a relegation battle in the National League Division 1 after last week’s loss to Donegal in Ballybofey.

Derry were very good in the first half of that game; but suffered a second half collapse.

Derry (Allianz FL Division 1 v Kerry): Thomas Mallon; Oisín Duffy, Niall Holly, John O’Kane; Kevin Johnston. Gerard O’Kane, Sean Leo McGoldrick; Mark Lynch, Conor McAtamney; Ciarán McFaul, Benny Heron, Enda Lynn; Mark Craig, Terence O’Brien, Daniel Heavron.
