A weekend to suit all sports fans
More than 70,000 spectators saw All-Ireland champions Galway prepare to hand over the silverware after being knocked out of the senior football championship quarter-finals by old rivals Kerry in a feisty 2-17 to 1-12 encounter.
As if the cloudless sky wasn't enough, the crowd had already been warmed up by the thrilling 2-9 to 0-15 injury time tie between Armagh and Sligo who will now replay the quarter-final on August 17.
