Oisin Mullin — 7
Mullin will take plenty of positives from this game. Won three kickouts in the first half and knocked over a point.

Lee Keegan — 8
When Mayo were lacking penetration in the first half, Keegan took it upon himself to get involved and ran through Dublin a few times. The huge hit from Michael FItzsimons may have taken a toll, but Keegan played well overall.

Paddy Durcan — 6
Was stationed close to his own goal in the first half and had to be withdrawn at half time. A fully-fit Durcan in flying form would have been a huge addition to Mayo.

Stephen Coen — 5
Didn’t make a huge impact on the game and struggled when full-back on Ciaran Kilkenny in the second half.

Eoghan McLaughlin — 5
Didn’t make a big impact.

Matthew Ruane — 7
Showed good drive and appetite for work.

Kevin McLoughlin — 7

Ryan O’Donoghue — 6
Scored two good points but was turned over a couple of times.
