Mayo advance to All Ireland Senior Championship quarterfinals after victory over Dunagall

Mayo have secured a place in the All‑Ireland Senior Football Championship quarter‑finals after a 1‑15 to 2‑6 win over Dunagall. The match, played under the new championship format that reduces the sixteen qualifiers to eight for the last‑eight stage, saw Lisa Cafferkey score a late goal that sealed the victory.

The competition now follows a structure in which the top teams from the National Football League are divided into two groups of nine and seven respectively. Winners of the Round 2A fixtures advance directly to the quarter‑finals, while losers enter an additional knockout phase. This format was highlighted by the Irish Times in a recent guide to the Sam Maguire and Taileann Cup competitions.

Mayo’s win comes alongside Meath’s success over Tyrone, which also earned that county a berth in the last eight. Both teams will now await their quarter‑final opponents as the championship moves toward its semi‑finals and final stages.
