Hit a couple of great free kicks. Doesn't take away from the fact that he is a real weak link for Galway.

Quote from: SouthDublinBro on May 06, 2024, 07:26:19 PMA lot of people owe the Galway goalie Gleeson an apology. His frees into the wind at the end won them that game. I remember he got a lot of stick over the past few years, notably from his own countymen.
Is he the fella that was nets against us in Croker that time?

He would never have taken those frees either only for Walsh and Tierney are still rehabbing injuries so they weren't allowed to kick from the ground.

Quote from: seafoid on May 06, 2024, 10:28:41 AMDoes anyone have the statistics? Galway seemed to have been more efficient. Neither team were in peak condition either. Mayo lacked a bit of energy towards the end I thought.
Ultimately this match was only an appetiser
RTÉ stats.



How does "Scoring chances converted" relate to the next two rows? In Galway's case there is a only a difference of one in the sum of the frees and scores from play, but in Mayo's case there is a difference of 9?

Wides and shots that dropped short?

Israel denying there is a ceasefire sez RTÉ.
Israel doesn't want to stop killing Palestinians. It's the same people who executed the O'Kellys on the hanging hill  in Knockcroghery back in the day, more or less.

Those goalline dramas are never going to be given. There was another one in the club hurling final.
