Mayo 1-18
Cavan 0-15
Rachel Kearns’ first-half goal meant Mayo were able to hold off a brave Cavan showing to pick up the points in this Group 1 first round TG4 All-Ireland Senior Championship encounter at Markievicz Park.
Michael Moyles side did the hard work in the first half and held a seven-point interval lead, and they were able to keep the gap between themselves and the Breffni side up to the final whistle, with the free taking of Shauna Howley a key component in this victory.
