Donegal edge ahead It was tense at times, brilliant at others as this game hung in the balance right until the final kick, which was enough for a Donegal win, but not enough to finish top of the pile due to their own opening day defeat to the Red Hands, who had the head-to-head game began with a bang as Peadar Mogan and Darren McHale swapped early points, but Mayo were fortunate not to be punished with a goal as an Aidan O'Shea slip saw a lightning Donegal counter with Mogan put in, but he thumped Caolan McColgan added another, Mogan was black carded for a trip in the ninth minute and while he was away, Mayo hit three points as Ryan O'Donoghue's frees sandwiched McHale's second of the was a tense opening period with both sides defending well and giving little away cheaply, but the advantage swung back to Donegal following a two-point free converted by Michael the Ulster champions outscored Mayo by four to two heading into the break to lead 0-9 to 0-6, it seemed the game was now beginning to open up a little.

Tyrone into All-Ireland quarters with big Cavan win
Tyrone cruised into the last-eight of the All-Ireland series by beating Cavan by 0-31 to 0-18 to top Group Four at Brewster Park. The Red Hands were rampant in attack and gave a resounding reaction to their defeat by Mayo at Healy Park a fortnight ago with 11 different McCurry top scored with 0-9 while Darragh Canavan finished with 0-5. Tyrone finish top of the group beating Donegal on the head to head rule after the Tir Chonaill beat Mayo in Roscommon, and it means they go straight through to the O'Rourke's side led 0-18 to 0-7 at the break and hit seven unanswered points in a row including two, two pointers, first from Niall Morgan from a free before Peter Harte raised an orange flag to establish a seven point lead. Rory Brennan and Paddy Lynch who finished with nine points of his own traded two pointers but it was the speed and flair of the Red Hand attack that really was the story of the half despite seeming to struggle early on with their own kick-out as Cavan brought a physicality that was lacking in their Ulster defeat to the same opposition in April. The one blemish on the Tyrone first-half was losing Michael McKernan to injury after just two minutes with the Coalisland attacker exiting the field holding his left arm. Raymond Galligan's side needed a spark in the second half and got it through another Lynch two pointer. McCurry and Cormac O'Reilly traded scores before Tyrone hit six unanswered scores to lead 0-24 to 0-12 with twenty left to play. Arguably the biggest cheer of the day was reserved for Conor Meyler, who returned to be play for Tyrone for the first time in almost two years after a horrific run with injury. His last appearance came against Kerry at Croke Park in the last-eight of the All-Ireland in 2023. The Red Hands finished with a flourish as McCurry landed another two pointer while Under 20 footballer of the year Eoin McElholm came off the bench to put the icing on the cake and seal a thirteen point win for his county.
