The first half of Dublin vs Kerry in Sunday's All-Ireland Senior Ladies Football Championship final was dominated by Hannah Tyrrell.

The Dublin forward scored eight points, four from play, as her side took a seven-point lead into the break. Kerry fought back in the second half but Dublin won 0-18 to 1-10.

It was a win which earned Tyrell her first senior All-Ireland medal. Though she has won a Six Nations title with Ireland, played in a Rugby World Cup, and won an FAI Cup, Tyrrell said Sunday's win is "definitely at the top of my list".

"It's pretty common knowledge that this is something I've been chasing for a very long time," she told The Sunday Game.

"Gaelic football has always been a sport I've been drawn towards. My dream was to get back into a Dublin jersey, and get that All-Ireland. The team pulled us over the line today."

The day was made even more special as Tyrrell got to lift the Brendan Martin Cup with her daughter Aoife in her arms. Tyrrell's wife Sorcha gave birth to Aoife just seven weeks ago.

"It's been a whirlwind few weeks for me, a bit of an adjustment period," said Tyrrell, who was interviewed live on the Six-One News while feeding Aoife.

"I'm very proud. Hopefully, we'll see her here in Croke Park in about 20 years or so!"
