Memorable day at the Tour de France yesterday

Tadej Pogaฤar burned it up in the Pyrenes to take the yellow jersey, and a few Wexford people were seen on the TG4 live feed.

Speaking at Portrush today, Shane Lowry made his pick for Sunday's All-Ireland hurling final.

Brighton have given the 'green light' for Evan Ferguson to join Roma on loan.๐Ÿšฆ

He would be behind Ukranian striker Artem Dovbyk in the pecking order at Roma.

Is this the right move for Ferguson?

The Mayo county board issued an apology to former manager Kevin McStay for the ham-fisted statement issued nearly two weeks ago relieving him of his duties.

Anyone who caught Irish band Gurriers on Sunday at Glastonbury might have noticed their goalkeeper Pierce Callaghan was wearing a unique GAA jersey.

Turns out he was wearing a jersey on loan from the great Benny Tierney himself! Amazing.

Stephen Cluxton shared some nice moments with the victorious Tyrone team after Dublin lost tonight.

It might be the last time we ever Clucko in a Dublin jersey...though you'd never rule a return out!

Tyrone have dumped Dublin out of the Championship!๐Ÿ”ด๐Ÿคš

Dublin are out at the quarterfinal stage for the second year in a row.

It was sloppy but Tyrone were deserved winners and will be very dangerous in the semifinal.

Little bit of argy bargy between Rory Beggan and Michael Murphy in the second half of the Monaghan-Donegal game.

Beggan was jogging backwards after a missed two-point free and didn't appreciate finding Murphy in his path!

Rory Beggan is a cheat code.

This enormous two-pointer after the hooter had sounded has Monaghan up six at halftime at Croke Park.

Donegal are on the ropes!

Seamus Coleman and Jake O'Brien were in the middle of the chaotic scenes that followed Wednesday's Merseyside derby at Goodison.

O'Brien had some words for Darwin Nunez.

Meanwhile, Coleman got involved with Alexis Mac Allister and Andy Robertson as both teams headed down the tunnel.
