The All-Ireland senior football final sets a 2026 date for July 25. Kerry will defend its crown with determination. Mayo, still chasing its first win since 1951, waits in the wings and hopes. Their 2021 clash ended with Kerry up by three points on the board. Fresh semi-final draws means another close game is likely. Both squads start training sessions today. Mayo’s first-choice selection is still undecided for now. For nearly 80 minutes next summer, just one side walks off happy after the match.
