Here’s the latest from the day’s sporting action…

Gaelic Games

Places in the Tailteann Cup Final are up for grabs at Croke Park this afternoon.

Antrim and Laois do battle in the first of the semi-finals at 2pm, before Down meet Sligo from 4pm.

Cork and Louth meet in Inniskeen from 3pm to see who will take the last remaining slot in the All-Ireland Senior Football quarter-finals.

Yesterday, Roscommon, Galway and Derry all booked their places in the quarter-finals, joining group toppers Dublin, Kerry, Armagh and Donegal.

Soccer

Scotland are aiming to book a place in the last-16 of Euro 2024 this evening.

A win against Hungary should be enough for them to reach the knockout stages of a major tournament for the first time.

The Scots lost 5-1 against Germany in their first match, before drawing 1-1 with Switzerland.

That game kicks off at 8pm, the same time as Germany’s meeting with Switzerland.

Golf

Shane Lowry goes into the final round of the Travelers Championship in Connecticut four shots adrift of leader Tom Kim.

The Offaly man shot a five-under par round of 65 which sees him tied for seventh alongside Justin Thomas and Tony Finau.

Lowry tees off at 3.50pm this afternoon.

***

Cavan native Leona Maguire has it all to do if she is to become the first Irish winner of a golf major.

Maguire is back on level-par and in a share of 14th place after a three-over 75 sent her tumbling down the leaderboard KPMG Women’s PGA Championship in Sahalee.

Amy Yang is the outright leader on seven-under par.

Maguire is back on the course just after 2.30pm this afternoon.

Swimming

At the European Aquatics Championships in Belgrade, Cormac Rynn finished outside the qualification times this morning as he clocked a 4.01.51 in his heat of the men’s 400m freestyle.

Later, Nathan Wiffen goes in the final of the men’s 1500m freestyle, while Shane Ryan competes in the final of the men’s 50m freestyle.
