Castlebar encounter progressed through periods of frantic activity followed by tumbleweed lulls

The match slalomed one way and then another. Mayo got more energy from their bench but still couldn’t pull away but they had done well to stall the early momentum.

Galway came surprisingly stacked with 10 of the side who had started last July’s All-Ireland final and that included five of the Moycullen team that just three weeks previously had played in the All-Ireland club semi-finals. The problem was that within two minutes, Galway had riposted. Matthew Tierney, one of few forwards rotated in on the square, got up to Paul Kelly’s attempted point and flicked to the net. The visitors lost Eoghan Kelly to the sin bin and Rob Finnerty to a nasty injury that necessitated his being carried off.

Galway were under pressure but conjured a lifeline when McDaid was let run too far and picked out the supporting presence of Seán Kelly on the counter. He slipped in the goal that undid all Mayo’s good work.
