Mayo have failed to win the Allianz National Football League Division 1 final.
Kerry were victorious in today’s decider, winning by X in the finish.
Paudie Clifford pounced on a short Mayo kick out, before giving Paul Geaney the simplest of tasks in palming to an empty net in the first half.
That gave the Kingdom a five point half time lead.
Mayo got a lifeline with an Eoghan McLaughlin goal in the second half but couldn’t get into a leading position.
Kerry are the first ever winners of the Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh trophy.
Full time score from Croke Park:
Kerry 1-18 Mayo 1-12
