Corofin (Galway) 1-6 Moorefield (Kildare) 0-6: Liam Silke’s 59th minute goal sealed a gutsy All-Ireland semi-final win for Corofin in Tullamore having been down to 14 men for 64 minutes.

In thrilling circumstances, Moorefield turned over a six-point deficit with six minutes of normal time remaining to claim their second Leinster senior football title in O’Moore Park this afternoon.

Liam Mellows claimed their first Galway SHC title in 47 years with a composure that belied their final inexperience in Pearse Stadium.

NOT unexpectedly, following their 24-points runaway win over Limerick in the penultimate stage, Tipperary have chosen the same starting side for Sunday’s glamour All-Ireland SHC final clash with Kilkenny at Croke Park.

A MARVELLOUS eight minutes burst, during which they went from three points down to four in front, gave Bantry Blues a victory they just about deserved over St Michaels in round two of the Evening Echo county SFC at Macroom last night.
