Galway through to Connacht U20 Football Final – Report and Reaction

Galway Under 20 Footballers are through to meet Roscommon in the Connacht Final on Saturday week following a 0-23 to 1-12 win over Sligo in McHale Park. Galway were in scintillating form in the opening half and scored an incredible 0-13 from thirteen shots at the posts in the opening 24 minutes. Sligo, who were going for three provincial titles in a row, scored the only goal of the game just before half-time but they were still well behind at 0-13 to 1-2 at the break. Galway stayed in control in the second half, with Sligo never getting any closer than within six points of their opponents and by the end Galway were comfortable winners. Reporting on the game from Castlebar is Kevin O’Dwyer…

After the game, Galway Bay FM’s Jonathan Higgins spoke to the Galway U20 manager Derek Savage…

Here is the commentary of the game with Jonathan Higgins and Kevin Dwyer.
