1933 Dublin live to fight another day and reach the All-Ireland SFC qualifiers round three. For Tipp, it's the long road home. However, Dublin looked far from impressive throughout and will need to improve dramatically to have any real chance of silverware this season.

FULL-TIME: DUBLIN 1-21 TIPPERARY 1-13

1853 The attendance is 22,107 at Croke Park for today's matches.

1848 A fair point from Darragh there. The Limerick v Kerry match last week was similarly problematic jersey-wise, their shades of green were very difficult to differentiate between.

Officially there is no GAA stance on teams having to change their jerseys - so we believe. Unless teams have the exact same colours eg Kerry and Meath. When a team does change then they often use provincial colours, Kerry would wear blue for example or Dublin green. Hope that helps.

1847 Darragh from Navan has got in touch to say:

How come either the tipp or dublin team didnt have to change their team colours?? The blues are very similar on a wet dark evening?? Strange.....Also what is wrong with the dublin team, they are awful...

1844 There are some full-time scores in:

Offaly 0-15 Waterford 0-10

Westmeath 1-07 Derry 0-13

35+1 mins McAuley plays a very clever ball through the centre for Dublin. O'Gara steals in on his marker, using his pace to get a yard of space. He has his back to goal and shoots on the turn. A good effort, but the angle is wrong and rolls wide of the goal. That is the last effort of the half.

34 mins David Henry goes for goal from 25 yards and McManamon ghosts in front of the keeper and tips it over the bar. Crucial point for Dublin. Dublin 1-09 Tipp 1-07

32 mins Flynn finds himself in traffic on the right flank so squares to McConnell. He punts from distance and the shot has plenty of airtime, but little accuracy.

24 mins Amazing interchange of passes down the right flank from Tipp. They have a chance in front of goal but George Hannigan cuts the shot wide. The midfield man needed to square to a forward to finish the chance.

23 mins A fine free point from Grogan. Dublin 1-07 Tipp 1-04

21 mins GOAL: A long ball catches the Dublin defence napping and, as Rory O'Carroll slips, Barry Grogan gets the goal. He took it so well, rounding the goalkeeper and tapping home soccer style. Lovely stuff. Dublin 1-07 Tipp 1-03

1819 Westmeath 1-06 Derry 0-11

17 mins Alan Brogan finds five yards of space everywhere he can look as he storms in on goal. Easy chance but he puts it left and wide on his near side.

2 mins Alan Brogan gets his paws on a long ball wide on the right and beats Paddy Codd. He has a man near the area, but curls in his own effort. Dublin 0-01 Tipperary 0-00

1 mins We're off. Kevin McManamon is played in on goal from the throw-in. He only has the keeper to beat and somehow manages to contrive to put it wide. Such a wasted opportunity for the Dubs.

1758 There will be a minute's silence at Croke Park to commemorate the deaths that took place on 21 November 1920 - Bloody Sunday. The teams playing that day were, of course, Dublin and Tipperary.

1752 Westmeath 0-05 Derry 0-08.

1751 Offaly 0-09 Waterford 0-06.

1733 Clare were in that game up until the 45th minute. However, the fortunte first goal, followed by the injury and long stoppage for the injury to Pat Donnellan disrupted their fightback. Clare had scored six unanswered second half points at that stage and were just a point behind: Such is life. Next up Dublin's footballers take to the field at GAA HQ to face up to Tipperary.

FULL-TIME: DUBLIN 2-22 CLARE 0-15

70+5 mins Lynch, running away from goal, turns his upper body and goes for a point: story of the day for Clare - another wide. And that is the last play of the match.

62 mins Free-in for Clare. Way out on the right hand side - 45 out - another wide to the right. Clare are making too many mistakes to win this surely.

56 mins The Dubs are right back in control now. Clare will need something special to up the ante here.

54 mins Free-in for Dublin. McCrabbe takes it and it's easy for the number 12. Dublin 1-16 Clare 0-13

54 mins Touhy, the Clare keeper, almost gets caught in possession and struggles to clear. Almost egg on his face there.

53 mins Alan McCrabbe frees for Dublin. He takes from wide on the right sideline. It is a wonderful cut and floats just over the bar. Dublin 1-15 Clare 0-13

52 mins Play has resumed.

51 mins Donnellan looks bad - big blow for Clare. Let's hope he is okay and mends well. The clash with Hiney was a total accident as both players were committed to the tackle.

50 mins We are looking at five minutes injury time, at the very least, after this stoppage.

49 mins Dublin will welcome this break in play as - bar the goal - they were being swamped by Clare. This could kill the Banner County's momentum.

48 mins Gerry Quinn will come on for Donnellan. This is Quinn's 33rd Championship appearance.

47 mins Play is stopped for Donnellan's injury. He will need attention off the field.

46 mins Hiney and Pat Donnellan collide. Donnellan is down injured.

39 mins Honan gets away from Brady and the giant Honan hammers the sliotar over the bar. Dublin 0-14 Clare 0-10

37 mins Chance for Alan Markham to claim a long ball in the dublin square. He goes to ground claiming a penalty - the referee thinks otherwise.

35+1 mins Peter Kelly has a go from the right corner and almost gets it, but the angle is too acute for the Dub.

35 mins Rushe is heavily marked on the edge of the square and sees O'Callaghan unmarked on the far end. He plays it across and O'Callaghan points. Nicky O'Connell pulls another back for Clare at the other end. Dublin 0-14 Clare 0-06

34 mins John Conlon finds space and with his back to goal points from 30 yards out. Dublin 0-13 Clare 0-05

1633 Cork 1-19 Cavan 0-04 - FULL-TIME.

34 mins Darach Honan is marshalled out of play by Gough. Dubs in contol here.

33 mins O'Dwyer has a chance to play O'Callaghan in on goal but a last ditch Clare tackle saves them.

32 mins On the next attack Touhy drops it, but the referee rules that he was taken out in the air by O'Callaghan.

30 mins Liam Rushe plays long for Dublin, keeper Donal Touhy comes off his line to claim for Clare.

29 mins Darach Honan, who has been very quiet, wides to the left from 20 yards out. Clare need to get him ball and soon.

29 mins Free-in for Dublin. McCrabbe will take it. It's easy as he puts it over the bar from 20 yards. Dublin 0-13 Clare 0-04

28 mins Dublin look very solid yet creative here.

27 mins Markham is on for Sean Collins for Clare.

26 mins Yet another from O'Callaghan. A 40-yard effort from midfield, slightly left of goal. He is running amok. Dublin 0-11 Clare 0-04

25 mins Free-in for Clare from 65. Colin Ryan's free is excellent and hits the crossbar and bounces out. Dublin clear it.

20 mins Sean Collins ties it up again. He broke into space on the left side of midfield and scored from long-range. Dublin 0-04 Clare 0-04

18 mins Oisin Gough makes a huge Dublin clearance. After some neat interchanges the sliotar falls to McCrabbe and from the right side of the area he gently taps over the bar. Dublin 0-04 Clare 0-03

1617 Cork 1-15 Cavan 0-04 - 15 minutes to go.

16 mins Pat Vaughan is being stretchered off. He seems to have pulled something. It was off-camera so I'm not sure what yet.

14 mins Stephen Hiney picks up a ball from Declan O'Dwyer and 40-yards out he has a go. The Dublin captain makes no mistake and splits the posts. Dublin 0-03 Clare 0-03

1610 Cavan are heading out of the Championship and I think some of their players wish it was sooner rather than later.

They've been reduced to 14-men as Garret Smith has been sent off. Smith received two yellow cards.

Daniel Goulding converts another free meaning Cork now lead 0-15 to 0-01.

7 mins Cork 0-15 Cavan 0-01. Smith sent off for Cavan.

1604 Cork 0-12 Cavan 0-01

4 mins David O'Callaghan is brought down by Cian Dillon. Alan McCrabbe takes the free from 20-yards out. It's good. Dublin 0-01 Clare 0-00

3 mins Long Clare free-in and keeper Gary Maguire claims it. As he does he gets smacked with a hurl and goes down. Free-out.

2 mins Free-in for Clare. Colin Ryan hammers it at goal, but it goes left and wide.

1 mins We're off. John Sexton of Cork is the man with the whistle.

1559 The Dubs are in a huddle on the field as are Clare. I predict this one to be very tight and the Dubs to sneak it by one or two scores.

1558 There is paltry crowd in the mighty Croke Park today. A shame really, rain will do that though.

1556 Dublin are 5/4 favourites for victory over the Banner County today.

1544 Ciarán Lyng has been named Man of the Match in the Galway v Wexford match - very much deserved.

1543 Next up today is Dublin v Clare in the All-Ireland SHC phase 2.

1542 Cork 0-09 Cavan 0-01 at half-time.

1539 Two minutes to the break and it is Cork 0-09 Cavan 0-00. Daniel Goulding 0-03 from free, with Sheehan, O'Neill and Kelly adding to the tally.

1534 That's that from Pearse Stadium. A wet, windy and error-strewn afternoon ends with Wexford gaining revenge for the last and only other time these sides met - a loss to Galway in the 1925 All-Ireland Championship.

FULL-TIME: WEXFORD 1-11 GALWAY 0-13

70+5 mins All Wexford as Galway can't get a hold of the ball. Banville has loads of room to shoot from 30 yards, but he makes a complete and utter mess of it and wides. Barry also wides for Wexford but it doesn't matter as the referee blows for full-time. Galway 0-13 Wexford 1-11 FULL-TIME.

70+3 mins Graeme Molloy moves out of his full back position to canter forward at Galway. He offloads and Lyng receives, side on to goal he punts and scores. Galway 0-13 Wexford 1-11

70+2 mins Wexford equalise with 5 minutes of added time to be played. Galway 0-13 Wexford 1-10

70+2 mins Armstrong takes the free but undercooks it and the ball drops to Masterson's hands.

70+1 mins Play has been stopped to tend to the injured Joyce.

69 mins Doyle commits a foul on Joyce as he heads towards goal. This will be a crucial free in for Galway. If they get this the two point margin should be enough to see them home.

68 mins Forde has space and with his back to goal he shoots on receiving the ball. It is well wide. He had loads of space and time, but has struggled a little today.

67 mins Lyng has a punt. He has a quick dart of pace outside his marker on the right and left-footed over the bar. Excellent work from Lyng. Galway 0-13 Wexford 1-09

66 mins Over 2,000 in attendance at the Galway match.

65 mins A Galway ball is spilled by Wexford keeper Masterson. He gets away with it as a defender comes to clear up the spillage.

1520 Cork 0-04 Cavan 0-00.

63 mins Gary O'Donnell makes no mistake with a chance on the right hand side a moment late. Lots of air time but the angle was right. Galway 0-13 Wexford 1-08

61 mins Fine 20 metre run from Bradshaw and with 20 metre to goal he goes for a point, but gets his angle all wrong and the ball ends up well wide.

60 mins Free-in for Wexford. Bradley to take. 45 out, this time it floats to the right and is cleared by Galway.

58 mins Clancy is replaced by Breatnach for Galway. Joyce soon after adds another point as he is finds space on the left flank. Galway 0-12 Wexford 1-08

57 mins Waters goes for a point for Wexford from 30 yards. He has acres of space but the shot is very high and drifts wide in the wind.

1513 Cork 0-03 Cavan 0-01.

56 mins Mulally strides in to goal and draws the defence, he then squares the ball across to Bane who has plenty of space thanks to Mullaly's run and bag a point. Galway 0-11 Wexford 1-08

55 mins Banville has a chance in front of goal, but his effort slices off his foot and wide.

52 mins Chance for a Wexford goal. Bradley is in on goal, but he goes to ground. The referee sees it as a foul by Mullaly. He is looking for a penalty and gets it. Lyng takes the penalty and he goes for the bottom left corner. GOAL WEXFORD: Galway 0-10 Wexford 1-08

51 mins Niall Coleman falls heavy following a two-man strong Wexford challenge. He should be able to continue.

50 mins Wexford free-in: Barry takes from the 45 mark. The ball flows over the bar. Galway 0-10 Wexford 0-08

49 mins Cork 0-01 Cavan 0-00 in the 3pm match. The conditions are similarly wet for that encounter.

48 mins Galway win a free in: Armstrong takes and tries to curl it in. He doesn't quite get enough on it and it narowly misses it.

47 mins Bane shoots at goal from 30 yards out, Masterson has to stretch to save.

46 mins Bane has the ball tipped to him along the ground and flips it off the floor and into his hand. He then smacks the ball over the bar. Great point. Galway 0-10 Wexford 0-07

44 mins Armstrong returns a point for Galway. Galway 0-09 Wexford 0-07

42 mins A free from Lyng is aimed just over the Galway bar. It has the legs but very little pace. Joe Bergin gets a hand to it to try to prevent the point, but he only succeeds in helping it on its way. Galway 0-09 Wexford 0-06

41 mins Armstorng tees up Bane and with his feet planted and a little flat-footed he goes for goal. The shot is immaculate and over the bar. Galway 0-08 Wexford 0-06

35 mins We're off in Pearse Stadium.

1451 The pace of that game was very slow. The conditions are so difficult for the teams. Galway look the more clinical in front of goal, but Wexford passing is keeping them in it.

HALF-TIME: GALWAY 0-06 WEXFORD 0-05

35+1 mins Lyng is under severe pressure from Wadding who is prodding him and pushing him outside, but 15 yards from goal Lyng gets a yard of space and punts over the bar. Galway 0-06 Wexford 0-05. That is the last play of the first half. Back for more shortly.

35 mins Matt Clancy follows suit with a wide of his own after a superb run.

34 mins Joyce runs onto a through ball into the right corner. He gets on to it but is closed down by Malone and Joyce can't make the right angle as the shot goes wide.

33 mins Sean Armstrong breaks down the left and beats his marker. He goes for a point but the legs aren't in the shot and it drops into Masterson's waiting arms.

32 mins Wexford hit a fourth wide. It was Matty Forde again.

31 mins The pitch is so wet from the deluge of rain over the last few days. It is treacherous for handpassing and soloing as the ball can literally go anywhere.

30 mins Coleman pushes Bradley and Wexford win a free. Bane intercepts and clears the danger for Galway.

29 mins Wexford have had 61% of possession so far today.

28 mins The resulting free in is missed by Wexford.

28 mins Cormac Bane picks up a yellow for a very late tackle.

26 mins Galway hit the post. I believe it was Joyce from a very actute angle on the left.

24 mins Cormac Bane, who was introduced for Colcannon, points from just outside the area. He was under very little pressure from the Yellowbellies. That was their first point since the eighth minute. Matthew Clancy adds another after a solo run down the left and with his left foot points through the posts. Galway 0-06 Wexford 0-04

23 mins Wexford have their tails up and stream in on goal again, Barry plays in Morris who has the keeper advancing toward him. He chips the keeper and the ball dips over the bar for a point. Galway 0-04 Wexford 0-04

22 mins Lyng takes a free 30 yards out on the right, very good shot and he gets it perfectly. Galway 0-04 Wexford 0-03

19 mins Colm Morris absolutety hammered a Galway man there. I think it was Colcannon. Wexford, in the next opening, swiftly move downfield and a long ball puts in Redmond Barry. He goes for goal with only the keeper to beat - the shot is at the keeper's feet though and is kept out.

17 mins Faherty comes off his line to clear a long Wexford ball into the area. He makes a mess of it but Gary O'Donnell comes to his help and clears for the Tribesmen.

15 mins Free-in for Wexford and Forde is handed the opportunity. This time he makes no mistake and splits the post. Galway 0-04 Wexford 0-02

13 mins Wexford play it out from their own goal. Ciaran Lyng is fed in the corner and from an acute angle he turns inside his marker and gets off a right-footed shot. The left-footer has made a great angle and gets the point. Galway 0-04 Wexford 0-01

12 mins Free in to Wexford and Forde puts it wide and to the right. That was very kickable and a poor miss. Most unlike Forde.

10 mins Mattie Forde and Kieran Fitzgerald pick up a booking each.

9 mins Joyce cuts inside the cover after a great inside pass. He is closed down by Molloy but not enough and left punts over the bar. Galway 0-04 Wexford 0-00

7 mins Eoin Colcannon wins a 50/50 battle on the right wing and fist passes inside to Joyce. Joyce has beaten David Murphy for pace and fists over the bar for another point. Galway 0-03 Wexford 0-00

6 mins A Galway ball is pumped into the area but Graeme Molloy deals well with the pressure and relives the Wexford defence.

4 mins Joyce bears in on goal, but as he attempts to solo, the ball gets away from him and Wexford secure possession to break downfield. However, Brian Malone concedes a free. The free is played in to the Wexford area but Joyce pushes a Wexford defender in the back.

3 mins Paraid Joyce hits a free between the sticks on the right hand side. Simple free to take and well done. Galway 0-02 Wexford 0-00

2 mins Séan Armstrong wides for Galway from out on the left, first missed opportunity of the match.

1 min Padraic Joyce points from just in front of the posts to give Galway first blood. Galway 0-01 Wexford 0-00
