Daniel O'Mahony's diving block saves Cork's season to knock Roscommon out of All-Ireland running
All-Ireland SFC Group 2 round 3: Cork 0-19 Roscommon 0-17
Daniel O'Mahony's diving block kept Cork's season alive as the Rebels held on to eliminate Roscommon for the second time in three years.
A draw would've been good enough for the Rossies to pip Cork for third place in Group 2. But their chances ended when the full-back got his hands to Diarmuid Murtagh's outside-the-arc attempt.

‘I don't see any reason why this group of players can't progress further' - Monaghan boss Gabriel Bannigan
Today at 15:07 Gabriel Bannigan is adamant that Monaghan can continue to buck the odds and target a semi-final place after a dramatic four-point victory over Down saw them qualify directly for the All-Ireland SFC quarter-finals. Bannigan inherited a Monaghan team that was being roundly 'written off' at the start of the season. But after the NFL Division 2 champions made it three wins on the spin to top their All-Ireland group, they are now just 70 minutes away from repeating their 2023 run to the last-four.

Kerry will play one of Galway, Louth or Cavan in All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final
Those are the three teams the Kingdom can be drawn against in Monday morning's All-Ireland Preliminary quarter-final draw, which takes place at 8.30am on the Morning Ireland programme on RTÉ Radio. Kerry go into the draw as one of the four second place group finishers, along with Donegal, Down and Dublin, and they will have home advantage against the third place group finishers – Cavan, Cork, Galway and Louth As repeat pairings from the group stages or the provincial finals cannot take place, Kerry can't play Cork. Other pairings that cannot happen are Dublin v Galway, Donegal v Cavan, and Down v Louth. That means Dublin will play one of Cavan, Cork or Louth in Croke Park; Donegal can face Cork, Galway or Louth, most likely in Ballybofey; and Down can meet Galway, Cork or Cavan in Newry. The preliminary quarter-finals will takes place next weekend, June 21 and 22, with two likely to be played Saturday and two on Sunday. All four are expected to be broadcast on GAA+. The four group winners, Meath, Tyrone, Armagh and Monaghan, have qualified straight for the All-Ireland quarter-finals on the weekend of June 28 & 29. Mayo, Clare, Roscommon and Derry were the four teams to exit the championship after the group phase of games.
