Mayo rout Louth to reach first All-Ireland final in five years

Jul 11 · Sports IRL

Mayo hammered Louth by 17 points on Saturday to book a place in the 2026 All-Ireland senior football final, cruising to a 3-23 to 0-15 victory and their first championship decider appearance in five years.

Ryan O'Donoghue led the scoring with 1-11, including a first-half goal, while Darragh Beirne added 1-2 with a goal just before the interval. Conor Loftus rounded off the scoring with a second-half goal. Louth struggled to contain Mayo's attack and were held scoreless from the 28th to the 57th minute.

Mayo will face either Kerry or Dublin in the final on 26 July as they chase a first All-Ireland title since 1951.
