Dublin star scores back heel stunner to help her team to All-Ireland final

What a finish!

Dublin are through to the TG4 All-Ireland Ladies Football Championship final on August 3 at Croke Park, after beating Galway, 3-14 to 2-14, after extra time yesterday.

They will face Meath in the showpiece game, after the Royals took down Kerry in their semi-final by 2-12 to 1-9.

The highlight for Dublin was Carla Rowe's goal in the second half of extra time, which put the Sky Blues five points in front.

And it was a classy finish as well.

With the ball coming towards her at pace, she managed to hit a first-time back heel past the keeper to put her side out of sight.

Player of the match Hannah Tyrrell spoke after the game.

She said: "It's hard to put it into words to be honest.

"It was a really tough game. Galway, in fairness to them, they always give us a good battle, and they really put it up to us and they had a really never-say-die attitude, kept coming back right to the end and putting us under pressure, but we knew we had the fitness, we're in a good place.

"We haven't really performed to the standards we think we have, and I think we have another level yet to go, but just grateful to be there. We had to work damn hard for it."

On her nerveless free to take the game to extra time, she added: "I practice them week in, week out, every training session. I just have to be thinking that's a kick I've made a thousand times before and nothing changed in my routine and doesn't matter what's on the line, friendly or not, big game.

"And it went over the bar and very I'm grateful for that because I probably wasn't really into in the game too much kind of prior to that."
