Mayo were also big winners to spoil Diane O’Hora’s homecoming as Kildare manager, with Liam McHales’s charges running out 2-15 to 0-5 winners thanks to goals from the Cafferky sisters Lisa and Sinéad. A goal from Hannah Looney was key for Cork as they defeated Galway by 1-12 to 1-10 to book a place in the last eight. Galway led by 1-7 to 0-7 at the interval thanks to a goal from Olivia Divilly.
