Dublin Under-20s football manager Tom Gray has named his panel for this evening's U20 Leinster FC quarter-final against Wicklow at Parnell Park (7.30pm, Live on Wicklow GAA TV).

The starting side contains ten players that started in last year’s All-Ireland Final against Galway - Josh O'Neill, Conor Tyrrell, Adam Rafter, Rory Dwyer, Adam Waddick, Mark O'Leary, Adam Fearon, Mark Lavin, Lorcan O'Dell and Luke Swan.

The game throws-in at 7.30pm and will be streamed live by Wicklow GAA TV on the Wicklow GAA Facebook page.

There will also be live updates on the Dublin GAA Twitter page and here on dublingaa.ie.

Opponents Wicklow have already recorded a victory in this year's championship having finished with a Matthew Ging-inspired flurry to defeat Laois in the opening round.

"We played them last year in the championship. Despite winning, I thought the scoreline flattered us a bit," said Dublin manager Tom Gray.

"They are well coached by Kevin O’Brien and they have the benefit of having already played in this campaign, which is a big advantage.

“You can work away at training and challenge games, but you really can’t beat a proper knock-out championship game and their morale will be high after coming through late on against Laois.

“It has been a very tough time for everyone but this particular age group has suffered a lot in terms of the restrictions.

“Their lifestyles have been upturned so, in some respects, it’s great that they have had their football to focus on.

“Training has gone well, but the acid test will be when we go out to play on Thursday night.

“It’s great to have a competitive match to look forward to and we can’t wait to get going,” added Tom.
