Mayo retain their title, Donegal win Junior

Mayo win in a thrilling finale
Mayo 1-04 Dublin 0-05

Mayo retained their All-Ireland Senior Ladies’ Football title
thanks to a late goal from Diane O’Hora at Croke Park. Two
minutes from full-time the champions trailed final first-timers
Dublin by a point. However, player of the match O’Hora latched
onto a high ball which had been spilled by Dublin goalkeeper
Cliona O’Connor to volley Mayo into a 1-04 to 0-05 lead they
didn’t relinquish.

As the low scoreline suggests, the game was a poor spectacle,
however the defences for both sides were impressive with no
quarter being asked or given.
