Welcome everyone, to our live coverage of this Saturday’s second All-Ireland quarter-finals match. We will witness reigning champions Dublin, who are fresh from triumphs over Roscommon and Cavan in the initial round-robin stage of the All-Ireland series, taking on Galway at Croke Park. This thrilling match is the latter part of today’s double-header at the famous Jones’ Road stadium.
Dublin, undeniably the champions of Leinster, had a nerve-wracking game against Mayo at Croke Park, snatching a draw in the closing moments due to injury time. Now, they will be facing Galway, having ended the round-robin phases level pegging with them.
On the other hand, Galway emerged as victors from the Connacht final, thus entering the All-Irelands as the provincial champions. They earned victories over Derry and Westmeath before their own draw with Armagh. However, a recent win against Monaghan sees them approaching the quarter-finals with renewed vigour.
I, Nathan Johns, will be your host for this exciting match, providing a detailed play-by-play of all the action from HQ. Although the game does not start until 6.15pm, we’ll be offering insights and analysis in the lead up to it.
