Sligo’s Pat Hughes eyes Connacht redemption against Mayo

If there is one Sligo player who’ll see Sunday’s game against Mayo as a shot at redemption it will be the Connacht Senior finalists’ full-forward, Pat Hughes.

He was denied the chance of shining in the 2012 final, the last time these counties met in a Nestor Cup showdown, when an injury sustained in the warm-up ruled him out just minutes before throw-in at Hyde Park.

Hughes, 23, recalls that day with a certain rawness.
