Mayo secured the elusive five-in-a-row of Connacht titles this afternoon with a frankly incredible performance against a hapless Sligo at Dr Hyde Park.
The game ended 6-25 to 2-11 after leading at the break by 4-9 to 1-6
Aidan O'Shea scored a hat-trick of goals in the game and was unplayable at full-forward despite pretty much every Sligo defender having a cut off him.
The game was over after about 5 minutes but O'Shea was a human JCB for the entire match and ended with a personal tally of 3-4
Twitter was full of praise for the Breaffy man
