Brilliant Meath take down Galway to reach All-Ireland semi-final
Meath 2-16 (2-0-16) Galway 2-15 (2-2-11) MEATH'S STUNNING FOOTBALL summer continues as they added Galway to their list of scalps today and in the process booked a spot in the All-Ireland last four. Jordan Morris struck 1-6 from play in a stunning attacking display for the Royals, while substitute Conor Gray also grabbed a crucial goal and Mathew Costello impressed with four points. Galway, beaten All-Ireland finalists in two of the last three seasons, saw their 2025 campaign end at the quarter-final stage after a display where they failed to fire for long stages. Cillian McDaid and Liam Silke both found the net during the second half but Padraic Joyce's side were forced to give way to a superior Meath outfit. More to follow… Scorers for Meath: Jordan Morris 1-6, Mathew Costello 0-4 (0-1f), Conor Gray 1-0, Donal Keogan 0-1, Seán Coffey 0-1, Bryan Menton 0-1, Ruairí Kinsella 0-1, Cathal Hickey 0-1, Eoghan Frayne 0-1.

Majestic Meath finish with a flourish to edge Galway and reach all-Ireland semi-final
Meath are through to a first All-Ireland SFC semi-final since 2009 following a one-point win over Galway at Croke Park. In a see-saw quarter-final Croke Park, second-half goals from Conor Gray and Jordan Morris proved crucial for the Royals as they responded to a Galway purple patch that saw them assume control with 10 minutes left. After a 2024 where they suffered some heavy defeats in the championship, Meath are now 70 minutes away from reaching a first All-Ireland decider since 2001.
