Cork 0-18 3-11 Mayo

59 min – Staunton stretches Mayo out again with a point. That could be it as the clock drifts into the final few seconds.

Cork 0-18 3-10 Mayo

Can they do it? There’s less than 2 minutes left.

Cork 0-17 3-10 Mayo

56 min – PENALTY!! Orla Finn wins a penalty for Cork after she was pulled down. But Yvonne Byrne gets down low to parry it away.

What a game!!

Mayo are looking to get back to an All-Ireland for the first time in 10 years.

Dublin pipped them at the post in last year’s All-Ireland semi-final, will they be able to get over the line today?
