Sligo minors draw with Mayo, Leitrim lose to Galway

Sligo minor gaelic footballers completed the league stage of the 2023 Connacht minor football championship campaign on Friday evening with a spirited 1-11 to 1-11 draw against Mayo in Castlebar.

A goal from substitute Eamon O"Mahony on 56 mins looked to have Sligo on their way to victory - but a point from Mayo's Thomas Tuffy in added time rescued a point for the home side.

Mayo had already qualified for the play-offs prior to this evening's game.

In Tuam, Galway beat Karl Foley's Leitrim by four points, 4-8 to 1-13.
