Half time Mayo 1-4 Roscommon 1-7. Mayo with a goal with the first attack. Strong finish to the half by Roscommon

Strong finish to 2nd half wins it for the Rossies. FT Mayo 1-15 Roscommon 2-14
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Jases but that was some win.
Thought we were gonners  but some heart and spirit shown.
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

Hon the Rossies. The second goal was very well taken and the end of the game defending was excellent. It would be great if this team could emulate the 2006 team 19 years later.

Mayo lost both midfielders during the game, which was a big blow.
Probably should have scored more in first half, but they're still in the q-final.
Might meet again 😀

Mayo pipped at the post from winning 4 in a row. Like U20 final last week it was a good advert for Connacht underage football.

Mayo group of players made a big improvement from the group meeting but in the end the rossies ability to finish both halves strongest was the difference in a fine margin contest tonight.

Nice spread out of the Connacht titles this year with Galway senior, Mayo U20 and Roscommon U17.

U20 championship starts next Wednesday.  Mayo the strong favourites to retain the title with a strong midfield and very potent forward line in Darragh Beirne,Tom Lydon and Kobe McDonald

Just watched Sligo v mayo.  Sligo dominated the second half and should have won in my opinion some poor passing and bad shot selection hurt us.  Certainly gave Mayo a huge battle.  Lot of homework to do but Sligo do have a good team and will be in with a shout in my opinion.  Congrats to Mayo
I used to be indecisive but now I'm not too sure.
