Mayo 1-11 Galway 2-9

Galway moved back to the top of the Division 1 football table with a last-gasp win over Mayo at Castlebar today.

Substitute Paul Conroy and Padraic Joyce both clipped over late points as Galway took the spoils in a tightly-contested Connacht derby.

With a wind advantage, Mayo led by 1-4 to 1-3 at half time with Andy Moran and Fiachra Breathnach exchanging goals.

Although Matthew Clancy netted early in the second period for Galway, Mayo led going into the closing stages thanks to a 68th-minute Ciaran Conroy point.
