Galway manager Pádraic Joyce said he was humbled after thousands of fans turned out throughout the county to welcome the team home after Sunday’s epic All-Ireland final.

Galway may have lost the decider to Kerry but fans still turned out in huge numbers and it took the team several hours to make it back to the city after stopping in Ballinasloe and Tuam along the way before a reception at Pearse Stadium in Salthill.
