Mayo are out of the All Ireland Football Championship.

They suffered a heart-breaking 19 point to 1-15 loss to Donegal in Group 1's final game on Sunday evening.

That result combined with Tyrone's 31 points to 18 point win over Cavan means Cavan survive and Donegal go through as group winners.

Monaghan secured top spot in Group 3 earlier.

They came from behind to beat Down by 2-27 to 1-26 which leaves Down in second place.

Louth survived and dumped Clare out of the competition with a 2-17 to 2-14 win in Portlaoise.


Limerick are into the semi finals of the Tailteann Cup.

They had too much for Wexford in their quarter final with the final score at the Gaelic Grounds Limerick 4-21 Wexford 2-19.
