Mayo won the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final against Kerry by a margin of three points. The victory concluded a 75-year wait for the county's first title since 1951.

The match was played at Croke Park in Dublin, where Mayo secured a 1-20 to 1-17 victory. This result ended a sequence of 11 final defeats since 1951.

Kobe McDonald, a young Mayo player, has signed with St Kilda and is expected to join the AFL. The team's success followed the death of Paddy Prendergast, the last surviving member of the 1951 winning side.
