Connacht U20 final on tomorrow night at 730 in Tuam. No Youtube coverage for this final unlike the U17 final by the looks of it?
Two teams named
Galway: Oran Burke, Ross Mahon, Seán Mulkerrin, Eoghan McFadden, Liam Boyle, Ciarán Potter, Jack Kirrane, Matthias Barrett, Michael Collins, Matthew Tierney, Gavin Burke, Ben O'Connell, Darragh Silke, Padraig Costello, Rory Cunningham
Mayo: Jamie McNicholas, Jack Coyne, Rory Brickenden, Oisín Mullin, Aaron McDonnell, Conor Beirne, Eoghan McLaughlin, Evan O'Brien, Gavin Durcan, John Gallagher, Paul Towey, Paddy Goldrick, Aidan Orme, Stephen McGreal, Tommy Conroy
Galway have been really hyped up due to the results in the John Kerins competiton, Galway never seems to wear the favourites tag well.
I only saw this bunch once at minor level against Cavan and they were poor, lets hope they live up to the expectation.
They hammered this Mayo team by 13 points at minor in 2017 albeit Evan Murphy is a substantial loss since then but Matthew Tierney was only a sub that day and has really blossomed since. A lot of positional changes on the Mayo side since 2017 so it'll be a lot tighter tonight I imagine.
What happened to Evan Murphy's try out with Galway United, was it cut short due to injury? both have 8 same starters by my count from that minor match. Daniel Kenny who i recall was big physical lad scored two goals in that match is he still playing football? I think Tierney was starter Galway U17 team that year.
As far as i know he was playing some games with Galway Utd (Centre back i believe) and missed some of the club championship around this time last year, then came back for the quarterfinal and very unfortunately picked up a bad injury.
