Galway captain Seán Kelly said they parked their Castlebar win over Mayo in the opening round and made sure they got their feet back on the ground straight away again.

They backed up that 1-14 to 0-16 win over Mayo with a 4-20 to 0-9 hammering of Leitrim to set up Sunday’s Connacht final showdown with Roscommon at Pearse Stadium.
