GAA dominates this weekend’s sporting fixtures, but hey, we love our football and hurling so bring it on!
Football Qualifiers
Westmeath created one of the shocks of modern times by defeating Meath in one of the games of the summer.
However, they are on a retrieval mission here against Fermanagh on Saturday.
Cork were outclassed by old rivals Kerry after a replay and they should have too much for Kildare on Saturday evening.

You can cheer on Team Ireland in 13 different sports and the games will feature 7,000 athletes from 177 countries.
Tour de France
Chris Froome has dominated this year’s three-week tour and the race finishes up the Champs-Élysées on Sunday afternoon.
Team Sky have controlled the race with military precision, with Ireland’s Nicolas Roche playing a huge part in Froome’s victory.
The cyclists usually ease into the final stage and the sight of the peloton arriving in the French capital is always spectacular.
