17:23

Donegal 0-13 Derry 2-13 (57′) The goal finally comes, Jason McGee goes down with an injury allowing Gareth McKinless to run through and this time his handpass makes it over Patton and Lachlan Murray palms it in. That was definitely coming.


17:20

Donegal 0-13 Derry 1-13 (56′) Patton shows sharp reflexes to get a crucial hand in to deny a Derry handpass across goal for a tap in. He then comes out to deny Derry another goal, in both instances the Ulster champions had about three players on the line ready to finish but the pass never came. The impressive Oisin Gallen then takes a mark and converts it to make it a one score game.

Tailteann Cup: So as expected Tipperary are the worst of the third placed teams, and their interest in the competition now ends. From group three, despite their defeat to Wicklow, Limerick have qualified for the quarter-finals. Carlow’s win over Longford gives them a home preliminary quarter-final fixture, with the latter on the road.

Antrim top group four with Fermanagh in second despite today’s loss. They edge Wexford on scoring difference who take third.

Quarter-finals: Cavan, Meath, Limerick, Antrim

Preliminary quarter-finals: Home teams - Offaly, Fermanagh, Down, Carlow. Away teams: Longford, Laois, Wexford, New York


16:44

HT Donegal 0-6 Derry 0-9 A big missed chance for Donegal below who trail by three points at the interval.


16:42

16:39

16:34

16:27

Roscommon 1-17 Sligo 1-9 (64′) Dylan Ruane, who had earlier scored a nice point makes another long run, he receives a pop pass in on goal coming through the D, and is fouled as he shoots, but the scuffed effort somehow bounces into the net. Donie Smith then puts eight between the teams.


16:22

Roscommon 0-16 Sligo 1-9 (56′) Enda Smith kicks his fourth point, wind at his back from 35m he floats it over.

A look below at Offaly’s second goal in the Under-20 final. They now trail though by 10 points (2-21 to 2-11) after 56 minutes.


16:12

Roscommon 0-14 Sligo 1-9 (49′) GOAL for Sligo who refuse to go away here. They win a long kickout and have an overlap inside, at the end of which Reilly buries it. A confident finish and he has 1-3 to his name now.


16:07

Cork now lead Offaly in the Under-20 hurling decider by 2-17 to 1-10. They scored 1-6 to no reply at the start of the half. Here’s a look at the goal ...


16:04

Roscommon 0-10 Sligo 0-7 (39′) Reilly kicks his third point from play after a strong start to the second half by the hosts. Enda Smith with a good point, and some really quality tackling by Roscommon. But Sligo are still only three off.


15:59

Cork 2-13 Offaly 1-9 (33′) The Rebels bag 1-2 at the start of the second half in Thurles to go six points up! The goal via Michael Mullins.


15:47

HT Cork 1-11 Offaly 1-9 A look back here at the Offaly goal in the first half of the Under-20 hurling final. Offaly started strongly but trail Cork by two points at half-time. The Rebels slotted four in six minutes up to the 29th minute.


15:46

HT Roscommon 0-8 Sligo 0-6 19 wides between Roscommon and Sligo. Roscommon will have the strong wind behind them in the second half, and they’ll need to up it. Enda Smith and Ben O’Carroll have been impressive but the longer Sligo are in it the more dangerous they become.


15:42

15:38

Mayo 0-14 Louth 1-10 (74′) GOAL for Louth! Conall McKeever with a tidy finish after a handpassing move. Mayo go long from the kickout, Louth win it and work it into Grimes who makes it a one point game!!


15:32

Mayo lead Louth 0-13 to 0-9 with five minutes added on.


15:29

Monaghan 0-21 Clare 1-15 (66′) With five minutes left Monaghan are leading by three. Conor McManus has come on to kick two of their last four points.


15:24

Mayo 0-12 Louth 0-9 (59′) Mayo captain Paddy Durcan is on now and he steps past two defenders and kicks a brilliant point, at the end of a counter attack where Louth again butchered a scoring opportunity. Sam Mulroy responds with a free.


15:19

15:18

15:12

Roscommon 0-1 Sligo 0-0 (10′) Diarmuid Murtagh who scored the first point of the game from a free, misses an early goal chance after brilliant play from Ben O’Carroll to set him up.

Mayo 0-9 Louth 0-7 (49′) Goal chance for Mayo, it’s handpassed across to Aidan O’Shea (who a few minutes ago kicked over a nice free), but who better than former midfielder James Califf to come out and fist the ball clear.


15:11

15:08

Monaghan 0-13 Clare 1-11 (45′) Monaghan score the first two points of the half to take the lead for the first time since the fifth minute. Clare reply via an Emmet McMahon free before Aaron Griffin buries a goal to put them one point ahead again.


15:01

Mayo 0-8 Louth 0-5 (39′) Matthew Ruane kicks a brilliant point, on the run, from a tight angle off his weaker left foot. Downey then responds with a lovely point, decelerating on the edge of the D, making his angle and curling it over.

Mayo 0-8 Louth 0-6 (41′) Goal chance for Leonard Grey who is picked out by a brilliant pass, but Reape is out on him brilliantly and forces his shot over the bar rather than under it.


14:49

HT Monaghan 0-10 Clare 0-10 Clare led by 0-5 to 0-2 and 0-7 to 0-3 in the first quarter but Rory Beggan’s free levelled matters in injury time for Monaghan.


14:41

FT Limerick 1-10 Wicklow 2-14 This win leaves Limerick’s place atop group 3 of the Tailteann Cup at risk, with Carlow and Longford in action at 3pm. Wicklow are now currently third and they’ll stay there unless Carlow beat Longford.


14:39

HT Mayo 0-7 Louth 0-4 Reape kicks a free from distance wide. Then Louth with a great chance of a point from the edge of the D, keep passing before the move ends with a brutal shot from a tight angle. Both teams are tackling hard but the attacking play and variety and finishing has been really lacking.


14:36

14:31

Mayo 0-6 Louth 0-4 (29′) Conor Grimes slices a shot from the edge of the D as Louth waste a second good scoring chance in a row. Between them Sam Callinan did well to break into the D but then dropped his shot into the goalkeeper’s hands. Mayo struggling against a defensive block, once again.


14:27

Mayo 0-6 Louth 0-4 (25′) Louth have cut the deficit to two again. Ciaran Downey left footed curls over a lovely mark from the right of the D.


14:21

14:18

Mayo 0-3 Louth 0-1 (15′) Nine minutes since Mayo’s last score and their last two moves have ended with poor kick passes. But then Louth turn it over themselves on halfway, Aidan O’Shea with brilliant hands pops it to David McBrien who shoots straight at James Califf. No score from play yet for Louth. It’ll be one thing frustrating Mayo but they need to score themselves.


14:06

Mayo 0-3 Louth 0-0 (5′) Louth concede the Mayo kickout and get numbers behind the ball in their own 45. Mayo work it from side to side and then down the right wing to Ryan O’Donoghue who fists over.


14:01

Mayo v Louth and Clare v Monaghan are both underway. Over 10k in Castlebar as Aidan O’Shea wins the throw-in. The ball is brought forward by the referee. Mayo goalkeeper Colm Reape steps up and nails it.


13:52

Some late changes to the Mayo team ...

Jason Doherty replaces Fionn McDonagh; Padraig O’Hora replaces Paddy Durcan and Donnacha McHugh replaces Diarmuid O’Connor; Aiden Orme is added to the Mayo 26 and will wear number 9 with O’Connor ruled out completely. Two of Mayo’s star players out of the starting XV there, if Louth get their restarts and defensive structure sorted this could be interesting. If they just go for it, Mayo will love it like they did against Kerry.


13:50

Clare now lead by 1-12 to 2-7 after a goal by Ogie Fanning five minutes into the second half of the minor hurling final.


13:37

HT Galway 2-5 Clare 0-12 - Clare lead at half-time in the minor final despite conceding two early goals, here’s a look at the second...


13:30

Louth will almost certainly need to get something at MacHale Park to avoid an exit-pending sign, their third and final game coming against All-Ireland champions Kerry next weekend

Hello and Welcome ... We’ve a busy Sunday of GAA action ahead of us with 10 games across four competitions in football and hurling, and we’ll keep you up to date with all of them. Round two of the All-Ireland football championship tops the bill with Mayo in action at 2pm and Derry and Donegal clashing in Ballybofey later this afternoon. It’s the final round of group games in the Tailteann Cup, while Thurles is hosting the minor and Under-20 hurling finals. With Offaly taking on Cork in the latter, a big crowd is expected there.

We’ll be providing updates of all of the scores throughout the afternoon, and switching our focus between the various games depending on how they are going. Keep in touch via the comments section or on Twitter (@DonoghueEamon) but for now, let’s get started!
