Donegal take on Kerry in the National Football League Division 1 final.
Ultan Corcoran brings you all the action from Croke Park, with throw in at 4pm.
That's where we will sign off this evening!
Meath claimed honours in Division 2, while Donegal got one over Kerry in the Division 1 decider at Croker. Thanks again and enjoy the rest of your evening!
We'll be back next weekend Sunday for the hurling league finals in Division 1B as Clare take on Dublin, while Limerick face off with Cork in the Division 1 showpiece.
Donegal are Division 1 champions for 2026!
All over in the Division 1 decider and it's an emphatic 13-point victory for Jim McGuinness and Donegal. They extract some revenge for last year's All-Ireland final defeat. As for Kerry, they looked a shadow of their usual selves.
That flurry of three consecutive goals for Donegal between the 42nd- and 45th-minute effectively sealed the win. Meanwhile, TG4 have nominated Micheal Langan for the man of the match with 0-6 to his name.
It's worth noting, Donegal only beat Kerry by four points back in early February in Ballyshannon. Today, the margin is much wider but Kerry will undoubtedly bounce back in time for the Championship - perhaps its the shake up they need!
Joe O'Connor could have been blown up for steps but he got away with it. Half-backs Tom O'Sullivan and Armin Heinrich link up on the left for the latter to kick a nice point.
GOAL! It comes as a consolation but David Clifford gets his goal after a fine kick-pass from Tom Leo O'Sullivan. The Fossa man gave Gavin Mulreany the eyes, sending the Donegal shot-stopper the wrong way.

Cúl! Sin níos fearr ó David Clifford an uair sin.
Too little too late for Kerry as Clifford finds the back of the net.

A goal chance was close to being created there, but the door shut which forced Tomas Kennedy to settle for a point in the end.
The Kerry half-backs have been run ragged this afternoon but Tom O'Sullivan eventually gets a point.
Campbell, who scored 0-3 from play as a wing-back, departs for Sean Martin.
Donegal keep the scoreboard ticking over as Michael Langan feeds Finnbarr Roarty. Micheal Burns drags out of him but can't stop the wing-back from taking his point.
Donegal also tweak their full-forward line with McMenamin taking over from Shea Malone.
Geaney is only on the pitch a matter of minutes but he's already made a slight difference, picking up Kerry's first tow-pointer of the afternoon.
Kerry make a change in the full-forward line with top-scorer Keith Evans replaced by Cillian Trant.
Armin Heinrich brings a near 20-minute spell without a score for Kerry to it's end with a point from the right. Regardless, this game is well beyond them now.
Murphy - who was perhaps lucky not to be sent off in the first half - departs to a standing ovation from the Donegal faithful. Finnbarr Roarty replaces him which will likely lead to a forward reshuffle.
Again, Kerry leave far too much open field for Ryan McHugh to exploit - he saunters forward and converts from the Hogan Stand side.
Donegal are in flow state at the minute. Murphy, Langan, Mogan and finally Max Campbell all involved. The latter could have gone for goal but opted for a point instead.
Caolan McColgan draws the free from Mark O'Shea and Michael Murphy makes no mistake from outside the arc for a two-point score. This is turning into a rout!
As for Kerry, that's 16 minutes without a score - their last coming in the 38th-minute through Keith Evans.
That's a blow for Kerry - Jason Foley can't continue, but it looks like he will be okay and it's nothing serious!
This is getting embarrassing for the Kingdom now, they can hardly lay a glove on Donegal. Michael Langan turns his marker inside out before picking up his sixth point of the game.
Kerry have been lifeless in the half-forwards so on comes Dr.Crokes' star Michael Burns.
Joe O'Connor's foul enables Michael Murphy to step up and convert from a placed ball.
