WOMEN'S FOOTBALL ALL-IRELAND SEMI-FINALS Cork v Mayo: MAYO HAVE battled hard through the qualifiers to reach this stage while the champions Cork have had very easy run-outs against Kerry and Kildare.

Mayo’s two extra championship games could prove decisive but the Rebelettes rarely falter once September comes.

Cora Staunton has scored 53 points in the championship to date but Cork’s Angela Walsh and Bríd Stack have shackled her in recent years. If Cork nullify Staunton’s threat the onus will be on Emma Mullin and Triona McNicholas to provide the scores for the westerners.

CORK: E Harte, Rena Buckley, A Walsh, G O'Flynn, C O'Sullivan, B Stack, B Corkery, J Murphy, N Kelly, N Cleary, D O'Reilly, A O'Shea, M O'Connor, V Mulcahy, Rhona Buckley.

MAYO: Y Byrne, N Tierney, N Hurst, C McGing, K Sullivan, M Carter, A Loftus, C Egan , S Hughes, L Cafferkey, E Mullin, N Beegan, F McHale, T McNicholas, C Staunton.
