All-Ireland Senior Football Championship
Tyrone 0-2 Mayo 0-6
24' - Big goal chance for Ryan O'Donoghue who is played through by Aidan O'Shea but his shot on goal is blocked brilliantly by the retreating Seanie O'Donnell.
Low scoring stuff so far, with Mayo, whilst in front, mainly culpable for wastage in front of the posts.

FULL TIME - Down 0-25 Louth 0-24
From 11 points adrift, Louth end up on the losing end of a single point defeat to Down in Newry. Two defeats in two now for the Leinster champions.
Ultimately, they left themselves with too much to do. First half performances need to improve, surely. Down follow up their big win over Clare with a win of a different kind.
Patrick Havern and Danny Magill produced 0-6 each.

Down 0-24 Louth 0-22
68' - Four of Louth's last five scores have been two-pointers - all from the boots of important players Sam Mulroy (twice), Craig Lennon and Tommy Durnin. Louth have not been this close to Down since the opening minutes. An extraordinary comeback.

All-Ireland Senior Football Championship
Down 0-23 Louth 0-15
With 12 points between them, Sam Mulroy and Ryan Burns are leading the Louth charge but Down have a comfortable enough lead with around 10 minutes to play.
Donal McKenny has had a goal-bound effort come off the upright in the last few minutes too. A point by Shay Miller has Down up by a surely unassailable eight.

46' - Roscommon 2-9 Meath 0-18
Roscommon trail Meath by just three points but they have passed up a major opportunity to draw level as Enda Smith's penalty is saved by Billy Hogan.

This is how Malachy O'Rourke is lining out his Tyrone team tonight. Only three days ago, the Red Hand enjoyed a stunning All-Ireland victory at Under 20 level. Eoin McElholm scored 2-4 on Wednesday night and is in reserve here.
Incidentally, David Coldrick of Meath is the referee.

Down 0-17 Louth 0-10
Sam Mulroy - who else? - has cut Down's lead from 10 points to seven in no time at all. Can Louth get back into the game in Newry?

Look away if you're of a Cork persuasion - but this is worth looking at again. A brilliant double save from Shane Ryan and then a fantastic block from Brian Ó Beaglaoich keeps Mark Cronin at bay three times.
Had that been scored, Cork might have sensed a comeback was on the cards in front of a home crowd.

Christy Ring Cup final
FULL TIME - Derry 1-24 London 1-27
Cahal Murray went for goal from a 20 metre free deep into injury time, but he couldn't find the net. From the subsequent 65, Derry sent goalkeeper Sean Kelly forward and he had an effort blocked down. High drama with Derry chasing only a goal to force extra-time but they couldn't fin it.
It would be unkind to begrudge London the victory after that performance. 13 hours after their last victory in this competition, they've repeated the trick.
Cormac O'Doherty hit nine points, eight from frees, with his consistency and accuracy from the boot proving crucial in the end.

Christy Ring Cup final
70' Derry 1-24 London 1-25
Almost over at Croker and Derry trail by one. Unanswered scores by Ryan McGill, Richie Mullen, Ruairi O'Mianain and Eamonn Conway have given them a glimmer of hope.
Today 01:28 PM
All-Ireland Senior Football Championship
FULL TIME - Cork 0-20 Kerry 1-28
David Clifford has just been named the GAA+ Man of the Match, with 1-8 to his name. In the last few minutes, Tony Brosnan and Tom O'Sullivan have added two-pointers - bringing the team's tally to six in the match.
The hooter is followed soon by the whistle and Cork's championship woes go on. Kerry beat their great rivals again.
Today 01:25 PM
All-Ireland Senior Football Championship
HALF TIME - Down 0-16 Louth 0-7
Derry have racked up a very sizeable 16 points in the first half against Louth - including two two-point scores. Louth have been a second half team for the most part this year but Ger Brennan will need a orchestrate a major turnaround to get back into contention at Pairc Esler.
Ryan Burns' point on the whistle keeping them in it, just.
Today 01:21 PM
Christy Ring Cup final
60' Derry 1-20 London 1-23
London continue to lead Derry in the Christy Ring Cup final but it remains a one-score game. Too close to call at this stage. Derry have lost this game four times in the last decade and they need to find something soon to end that dire record.
2012 champions London are 10 minutes from another success.
Today 01:19 PM
All-Ireland Senior Football Championship
64' - Cork 0-18 Kerry 1-23
Such drama! Mark Cronin fails to beat Shane Ryan with a penalty as the goalkeeper dives to his left to help it onto the post. Then he saves again from Cronin and a third effort from the full-forward is blocked. Amazing.
Cork fail to reduce the arrears as the clock ticks down. And Kerry - still - having conceded a goal in this year's Championship.

Russell Henley surges clear at Tour Championship with Rory McIlroy in the chasing pack
Russell Henley shot 61 to move into a two-stroke lead after the first round of the Tour Championship, finishing with three straight birdies to move to nine under par. It leaves him two clear of defending champion Scottie Scheffler, the world number one finishing on his own in second place at the East Lake Golf Club. Rory McIlroy was the best of the Irish on four under par, with Shane Lowry finishing on even par. McIlroy made it to the turn on three under, after a spectacular 30-foot putt for eagle at seven. The back nine was more mixed as the county Down man mixed three birdies with two bogeys. For Lowry, it was a more consistent day, with two birdies and two bogeys to finish on level par. The course was set up to be more challenging with pins tucked in corners of the greens but it mattered little. In total, 22 of the 30 players were under par, six players were even and just two players were over par. The combined score of the field was 82 under par. Perhaps it was the heavy rain that pummelled the Atlanta area Tuesday and Wednesday that helped the golfers, with Round 1 played under preferred lies rules due to evening downpours. This allowed balls on the fairways or other closely mown areas to be lifted, cleaned and placed in a preferred spot. The Tour Championship winner will also be crowned FedEx champion and will pocket the $10m on offer, which equates to roughly €8.6m.

Shelbourne take massive step towards Conference League group stage with chaotic and thrilling first leg win vs Linfield
'Here we saw a red card and three penalties - one missed, one scored and one saved' SHELBOURNE 3-1 LINFIELD Shelbourne take massive step towards Conference League group stage with chaotic and thrilling first leg win vs Linfield DERBY matches can often be chaotic but this All-Ireland affair was bordering on the ridiculous. The penultimate installment of this four-parter has set the standard for which the final episode in Windsor Park will struggle to match. 3 Shelbourne beat Linfield in the first leg of their Conference League play-off Credit: Sam Barnes/Sportsfile 3 Referee Vassilis Fotias shows a red card to Matthew Fitzpatrick of Linfield Credit: Sam Barnes/Sportsfile Advertisement Here we saw a red card, three penalties - one missed, one scored and one saved - with Evan Caffrey's introduction at half-time swinging the game in Shels' favour. Given they played with 10 men for more than 70 minutes, Linfield might be happy this tie is not dead. But, considering their spot-kick came after they had pulled one back to make it 2-1, there will also be a sense of regret. So, forget Sam Fender and CMAT, the biggest show in Belfast next Thursday will be a little further down the Boucher Road as Linfield look to avenge their Champions League exit at Shels' hands by reaching the Conference League group stages at their expense. Advertisement Although Linfield had seven competitive matches under their belt compared to none prior to their last visit, they still struggled to match their opponents' intensity in the opening stages. The host should have taken the lead with just five minutes gone but Mipo Odubeko's free header from Kerr McInroy's cross went well wide. The match looked to wing decisively in Shels' favour with 18 minutes gone on the clock when Matthew Fitzpatrick was shown a straight red card when he caught Milan Mbeng with a high foot. David Healy protested furiously and, whilst it could be argued that Fitzpatrick did not see his opponent, that just means it was reckless rather than malicious and still a red card. Advertisement That should have settled Shels but, instead, they almost gifted the visitors a cheap goal. McInroy gave away the ball to Kieran Offord with keeper Wessel Speel scrambling to recover. Mark Coyle did well to close him down which may have prevented him from keeping his shot on target with Paddy Barrett in place on the line in case a more dramatic intervention was required. League of Ireland mascots compete in charity race in Naas There was a later scare, too, when Barrett and Speel got their wires crossed which led to the needless concession of a corner. But they did manage to get in at the break ahead, after converting one of two penalties awarded in the final four minutes of the opening period. The first came after Kyle McClean had blocked Harry Wood's cross from the right, after the Englishman had been slipped in by a neat pass by Mbeng, with his arm. Advertisement Odubeko stepped up but sent his effort well over the bar, slipping as he made contact with the ball which prompted a withering look at the penalty spot. To be fair to him, he played his part in securing a second spot-kick for which the responsibility was passed onto Wood after a quick check with the sideline. Ben Hall seemed so intent on avoiding the concession of a second penalty for handball that he awkwardly tried to take control of the ball with his stomach. It did not go to plan and, when the ball ran away from him, Odubeko nicked it off his toe which prompted the Linfield defender to foul. Initially, a free-kick was awarded but a VAR check confirmed the contact was - just - inside the box. Shels did not pass up this second opportunity with Wood making no mistake. Advertisement 3 Kieran Offord had a penalty saved for Linfield Credit: Sam Barnes/Sportsfile Scoring one side of the break but doing it on the other side was even better too and it followed an astute tactical switch. As strange as it might seem given the concession of two penalties, in terms of their shape, Linfield were doing well at keeping Shels at bay. That prompted O'Brien to withdraw Sam Bone, move James Norris inside and bring on Caffrey at left wing-back. He can scarcely have imagined that it would reap dividends as quickly as it did. Caffrey drove down the left wing and squared the ball to Odubeko who scored via a deflection off Sam Roscoe. Just 30 seconds had elapsed. Advertisement With those two body blows you felt that Shels could effectively put the tie to bed on the night but they contrived to throw the Belfast side a lifeline in the 53rd minute. Roscoe headed on Kirk Millar's corner. Coyle succeeded only in guiding it towards Offord at the far post who made no mistake from close range. It could have got worse for the Reds because Linfield were then awarded a penalty against Barrett when he prevented a flick-on reaching Roscoe with his hands. He received a yellow card when it could have been red. To add insult to injury, Offord's effort was batted away by Speel, his second penalty save of the European campaign. It was a let-off but, then again, there was one on the other end when Roscoe directed Mbeng's cross onto his own crossbar. Advertisement There was no escaping further punishment when they next hit the woodwork, with Wood's deflected effort hitting the post with Caffrey making no mistake from the rebound.

Joe Canning is a big fan of a Tipp star, labels him a 'tank'
Joe Canning is a fan of Darragh McCarthy who, scoring 1-13 in the final, played a key role in the Premier's 2025 All Ireland Galway's finest can't resist noting the Toomevara points-machine's first season didn't quite take 'flight' the way his own first season began. Sure, Canning's 2007 and McCarthy's 2025 ended in universal agreement that a star was born but only one of the campaigns began by aeroplane! READ MORE: All-Ireland winner's team granted replay in GAA county final after new rules blunder READ MORE: Exclusive: Davy Fitzgerald makes up his mind on his Antrim future "Yeah, Darragh's first season reminds me a bit of mine, I was 19 as well, so same kind of thing," says Canning. "But I don't know if he flew to his first championship game like we did - Ger Loughnane had us flying from Galway to Belfast for our match with Antrim. "Special times you'd love to do it all again, you know, when you are young and starting off but it's a little bit different now than when I was doing it."Social media wasn't as big then and the scrutiny wasn't as big so it's a lot harder, unfortunately, for players now when everybody has an opinion." Canning played against McCarthy this week in the Hurling for Cancer Research charity game and was impressed by the Tipp youngster's physicality - and his resilience as demonstrated on the road to Croker. 2025 GAA All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship Final, Croke Park, Tipperary's Darragh McCarthy scores his goal (Image: ©INPHO/Laszlo Geczo) "He was in the other dressing room so I didn't really get to chat with him but just the first time he walked past me earlier on, he's a serious tank of a young fellow now so I'd say he'd be well able to look after himself."It's never nice when you get sent off and stuff like that so it was great for him then to perform in an All Ireland final and score that 1-13."The world is his oyster now, winning an under-20 and winning the senior in one year. "It's always nice to see when the ending is better than the beginning almost, so it was great for the likes of him as well that he performed in the final having been, maybe, sent off twice in the year. "Sometimes, though, it's hard to stay at that level. It's not going to be like that every year unfortunately but he's got good lads around him and they will look after him."McCarthy's performance was integral to the decider's excitement, 2025 was a memorable final."At half-time half time everybody, and I'm sure all of the Tipperary supporters probably too, thought Cork had it and you couldn't foresee the second half, if you're being honest about it. "But what Tipperary did in the second-half was a phenomenal performance and thoroughly deserved, you know. "So it was a funny little All Ireland but fair play to Tipperary they turned up and got the result." It will also go down as a final that will resonate countrywide ahead of next season's call to arms. "I think Tipp winning has given everybody a good lift, if you look at last year and Tipp not getting out of Munster and now they are All Ireland champions. "If you were anybody else that maybe hasn't gone on so well last year and this year, you look at that and go typically 'why can't we do it?'."Now, it's not as simple as that but it gives you hope because when the underdog wins, it always gives all the rest of the teams a boost."Canning admits to having enjoyed the Tipperary win in certain ways."I suppose it's funny, you are always kinda rooting for the older guys, I suppose so for Noel (McGrath) and all the older guys who had obviously soldiered for so long, it's great. "On the other hand, you'd obviously love to see Robert Downey and 'Hoggie' (Patrick Horgan), these guys kind of win an All Ireland as well. "When you're out of it, and I am out three or four years now, you like to see good hurlers win and great hurlers, I think."Canning's return to playing wasn't as far off the pace as many might imagine, he is still playing club championship hurling - he could still do a job on the Galway bench!But given the Hurling for Cancer Research game featureed such as Darragh O'Donovan, Chris Crummy, Lee Chin, TJ Reid, Robert Downey, Noel McGrath, Brendan Maher, Darragh McCarthy and Patrick Horgan among a host of others, it was an incredible celebration of Canning: "Obviously you are raising huge funds for charity so obviously there's enjoyment in that and you're playing with guys, I suppose, that you'd normally play against, it's not every day I get to tog out with TJ Reid and pass them a few balls and stuff like that so that's cool enough."But it's more than the sport, obviously it's linking charity and sport. Every family knows somebody down through the years that's suffering and everybody suffers, unfortunately, with cancer."So I marvel at the way Davey Russell and Jim Bolger and everybody involved over the last few years have brought this on. It's phenomenal what they've achieved and you can see what sport can add - it's great."There were others such as Rachael Blackmore, Paul Townend and Barry Geraghty from horse racing, footballer Stephen Hunt is a regular attender and while Paul McGrath didn't play he was available for some selfies and autographs.A good night was had by all? "Oh, yeah, I'm still the same as anybody else, I'm interested in all sports," admits Canning. So when you see world famous athletes that have done it all, like Rachael Blackmore or anybody like that, it's always a 'pinch me' moment."Or you see Barry Geraghty there, you would have followed him all your life, he is a top class jockey. "So, yeah, anybody like that and, for me, getting a little rattle in the game off Davey Russell (who plays as a grizzley full-back), there's no harm in it either - we'd know Davey well, he's married to a good Portumna woman so we have half a claim on him up home!"
