MAYO ARE ALL-IRELAND football champions. 

While Kerry looked like they were going to force extra-time, Mayo prevailed during a nail-bitingly intense final 10 minutes to make history.

Andy Moran’s side defeated the odds and will take home the Sam Maguire Cup, a full 75 years since they last had the trophy. 

There were incredibly emotional scenes in Croke Park after the final whistle, with fans elated to witness the moment Mayo were crowned All-Ireland Senior Football champions, after 11 defeats in finals since their last success.

Here is the moment that captain Jack Coyne lifted the cup in Croke Park: 

75 years
11 finals
1 curse

AND NOW A 4TH TITLE

MAYO ARE FINALLY ALL-IRELAND CHAMPIONS ONCE AGAIN.
