The most memorable moment of the second of this afternoon's Leinster SFC semi-finals actually took place off the pitch.

When the stadium clock reached minute 16, the Croke Park crowd stood in applause to remember the late Alan and Stephen Harris, two Dublin fans who tragically passed away recently. The brothers, who are cousins of Ireland captain Robbie Keane, were killed in an accident when inspecting sewer pipes, were huge fans of the Dublin footballers.
