The Galway senior football championship semi-final at Tuam Stadium yesterday was even more one-sided than the scoreline suggests as Killererin with great ease qualified for next Sunday's final against Annaghdown at the same venue.

County stars Tommie and Padraic Joyce and their 19-year-old first cousin Nicholas Joyce were the stars for the winners, who led at half-time by 0-6 to 0-4. A goal and a point by Nicholas Joyce in the 11th and 12th minutes of the second half ended the game as a contest.

SCORERS: Killererin - P Joyce 0-6, 2 frees, NJoyce 1-2, M Mitchell 0-3, T Wilson, M Bermingham 0-1 each. Monivea Abbey - O Crowe 0-5, all frees, S Lane 0-2 frees, P Nevin, E Treacy, D Finn, S Collins 0-1 each.

Referee: P Serriter (Oughterard).
