Resolute Tribesmen eyeing best in the west status now

It was, without doubt, one of the poorest games of football between these two great rivals in living memory. 

Tactically brilliant but technically very poor. Galway’s numerical advantage and subs got them over the line. Mayo’s inability to break down a resolute Galway defence, and a lack of impact off their bench, cost them dearly.

There’s much more in this Galway team and it’s certainly a wonderful victory for this ambitious young panel.
