Luke Connolly, stop it.
It was a decent day for Cork's footballers. The new season is well and truly under way, they already have silverware to show for it and their nine-point dismantling of Mayo on Sunday proved that they
should've been shorter odds for the league than the Connacht men were.
Amidst their free-scoring 1-18 tally, Luke Connolly produced a moment of magic that would've even impressed a certain Mr Sheehan from a neighbouring county.
In the 46th minute, with Cork free-wheeling to victory despite having missed a penalty just beforehand, Connolly sat a deal ball on the sideline on the turf and pinged it with his laces straight as a die between the posts.
The angle, the distance, the execution.

Meanwhile, Kildare beat Westmeath in the big clash in Division Three whilst nothing could separate Limerick and Tipperary.
Roscommon fell to a Conor McManus-inspired Monaghan in the top tier but it was Derry who flexed their muscles the most, leaving Fermanagh in their wake with nine points to spare whilst Meath recorded a notable win over Armagh in a competitive-looking Division Two.
