Andrew Farrell goal sets up Mayo for first junior title since 2012

Mayo 1-12 Galway 0-13: Andrew Farrell’s goal 10 minutes from the break helped Mayo to their first Connacht junior football title since 2012.

Galway managed only two points in the last 23 minutes as Mayo stayed in touch through Damien McGing’s accuracy from dead balls.

Galway, who featured a number of Kevin Walsh’s extended squad, including the excellent Enda Tierney at midfield, would have been disappointed to go in level at the break after they held a 0-6 to 0-2 lead after 16 minutes.
