On a dramatic final day of the All-Ireland SFC round-robin stages, all three group leaders from Connacht going into the day - Galway, Mayo and Roscommon - lost their automatic All-Ireland quarter-final spots.

In Group 1, the combination of Kerry’s landslide win over Louth in Portlaoise and Cork’s three-point victory against Mayo in Limerick meant Jack O’Connor’s side now go straight into the last eight on July 1 or 2 and Cork take home advantage ahead of Mayo for their All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final next weekend on the basis of score difference.
