Mighty Mortimer points way for Mayo

Mayo 0-14

Cast in the same mould as Kieran McDonald, Mortimer with the similar golden hair, tormented the Sligo defence all afternoon and his contribution of five points was determining factor in Mayo setting up yet another Connacht final against their arch rivals Galway in a month’s time.

Mortimer’s pace, superb ball control and clinical finishing was a delight to watch, and one wonders why Sligo left Philip Gallagher on him for so long.
