Meath name unchanged side for All-Ireland SFC quarter-final

TEAM NEWS Shane Walsh available for Galway

Meath manager Robbie Brennan has named an unchanged team for Sunday's All-Ireland SFC quarter-final clash with Galway in Croke Park 1.45pm.

Keith Curtis, who was a late replacement for the injured James Conlon against Kerry a fortnight ago, retains his place in the full-forward line, while Ronan Ryan who came in for Brian O'Halloran and Cathal Hickey who replaced Mathew Costello, are also named on the starting 15 with Costello and O'Halloran returning to the matchday 26 after missing the sensational win over Kerry.

Jason Scully and Cillian O'Sullivan drop out of the matchday squad for Sunday's game.

Galway manager Padraic Joyce has also revealed his team for the game with 2024 Footballer of the Year Paul Conroy returning to the starting line up in midfield, while injury concerns surrounding Shane Walsh have been alleviated with the Kilmacud Crokes man named at full-forward.

Damien Comer continues his recovery from injury and is named on a strong bench for the Tribesmen.
