Mayo will be playing Tyrone in the All-Ireland senior football championship final in Croke Park in two weeks' time.

The Ulster champions saw off fancied Kerry by 3-14 to 0-22 in an exciting game that went to extra-time after finishing 2-11 to 0-17 in normal time.

Goals from Conor McKenna (two) and substitute Cathal McShane, who had a big impact on the game after coming off the bench, went a long way towards getting Tyrone over the line and into the final.

It sets up a first ever All-Ireland showdown between Mayo and Tyrone. The final on Saturday, September 11, will throw in at 5 p.m.
