Mayo's Lee Keegan has been cleared to play against Kerry this Saturday

Keegan will be back for the semi-final replay in Limerick.

UPDATED 22.30

LEE KEEGAN IS in line to play against Kerry in this Saturday’s All-Ireland semi-final replay after the GAA overturned the red card he received in the drawn game.

Keegan was sent off for an alleged kick just before the half last Sunday but tonight the GAA took the step of rescinding the card. The initial decision to send off Keegan was extremely polarising, with many people weighing in for and against the red card.

BREAKING NEWS: Lee Keegans appeal against his Red Card last Sunday in Croke Park has been successful meaning he is avaailable to play Sat.

Similarly, tonight’s decision drew an array of different views.

Lee Keegan decision a bit of a farce. Its a red card to kick out even if you don't make contact. Bad week all round for #GAA administration

Some other players came out in support of the decision tonight too.

Delighted for @leeroykeegan Common sense prevailed and not a vague generalised rule IMO.
