Tyrone manager Paul Devlin is conscious that his side will face a difficult task when they go head to head with Roscommon in Saturday’s All-Ireland Under-20 Football Championship Semi-Final at Breffni Park (5.00pm).

Roscommon breezed through the Connacht Championship and given the height and physique that their side can boast, they are certain to make a bold bid for an All-Ireland Final place.

Tyrone, though, can look to players such as Gavin Potter, Ruairi McCullagh, Eoin McElhom and Cormac Devlin to fire up their challenge.

In Saturday’s other Semi-Final at Semple Stadium, Thurles (3.00pm), Meath will face Kerry. This will be a tantalising contest between two teams desperately keen to make a huge impact at this level.

Kerry have already revealed their healthy ration of talent while Meath underlined their skills in emerging from Leinster in some style.
