Dempsey stays cool as Mayo storm to final

HARD to believe this was the same Mayo who almost kicked away the All-Ireland MFC semi-final a week ago.

At the Gaelic Grounds, Limerick on Saturday, they produced a scintillating display to crush Kerry in the replay and set up a final clash with Tyrone on September 21.

The improvement in Mayo in six days, particularly in their shooting, was incredible. In the drawn game they kicked 13 wides to eight for their opponents. On Saturday, the Connacht champions had just three wides while Kerry had nine.
