Both Donegal and Kerry remain unchanged in the All-Ireland final

Donegal confirmed on Sunday that the same side that won the All Ireland semi-final against Meath will be in the SFC final against Kerry.

County did not release a list of substitutes on match day, instead releasing a full 35-man list that included all 11 players on the bench for the Meath game.

Captain Patrick McBrearty will return as a substitute, with Caolan McGonagle also among the substitutes.

The Donegal team for the All-Ireland Football Championship final is as follows:

Sean Patton (St Eunan's); Finnbarr Roarty (Naomh Conaill), Brendan McCole (St Naul's), Peadar Maughan (St Naul's); Ryan McHugh (Kilcar), Eoghan Ban Gallagher (Killybegs), Caolan McColgan (Naomh Padraig Uise Chaoin); Hugh McFadden (Killybegs), Michael Langan (OC, St Michael's); Shane O'Donnell (St Eunan's), Ciaran Thompson (Naomh Conaill), Kieran Moore (St Eunan's); Conor O'Donnell (Cardona), Michael Murphy (Glenswilly), Oisin Gallen (Sean McCumhales).

Subs (from the Meath game): Gavin Mulreaney (St Noal's), Stephen McMenamin (Red Hughes), Odhran McFadden-Ferry (Gaoth Dobhair), Eoin McHugh (Kilcar), Caolan McGonagle (Bancrana), Odhran Doherty (Naomh Conaill), Patrick McBrearty (team captain, Kilcar), Jamie Brennan (Real na Mara), Niall O'Donnell (St Eunan's), Daire O Baoill (Gaoth Dobhair), Jason McGhee (Chloich Cinn Faola/Corduff).

Kerry, meanwhile, remain stuck with the same 15-man starting line-up that started their semi-final win over Tyrone, although a reinstated Diarmuid O'Connor returns to the matchday coaching staff.

The 15 players who started the semi-final win over Tyrone are expected to start, but O'Connor could be ready to make his debut after beating Cavan in Killarney last month in the All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final. Kerry have named 28 players but are limited to 26 on match day.

Paul Geaney, who scored against Donegal in the 2014 All-Ireland Cup final, is again named on the substitutes list.

The Kerry team line-up for the All-Ireland final is as follows:

Shane Ryan (Rathmore); Paul Murphy (Rathmore), Jason Foley (Ballydonoghue), Dylan Casey (Austin Stacks); Brian Ó Beglaoich (An Gaeltacht), Mike Breen (Beaufort), Gavin Whyte (OC Dr Crokes); Sean O'Brien (Beaufort), Mark O'Shea (Dr Crokes); Joe O'Connor (Austin Stacks), Sean O'Shea (Kenmare Shamrocks), Graham O'Sullivan (Dromed Pearce); David Clifford (Fossa), Paudie Clifford (Fossa), Dylan Guiney (Dingle).

Subs (11 of 13): Shane Murphy (Dr Crokes), Cillian Spillane (Templino), Evan Looney (Dr Crokes), Tom Leo O'Sullivan (Dingle), Tadhg Morley (Templono), Paul Geaney (Dingle), Michelle Burns (Dr Crokes), Tony Brosnan (Dr Crokes), Armin Heinrich (Austin Stacks), Thomas Kennedy (Kerins O'Rahillys), Diarmuid O'Connor (Na Gael), Conor Guiney (Dingle), Dara Moynihan (Spa).
