Sunday sport: Kerry win All-Ireland, Spain lead Euros final

All-Ireland football final

Kerry have added another All Ireland Football title to their collection.

The Kingdom beat Donegal in the final by 1-26 to 19 points at Croke Park.

David Clifford kicked 9 points from play for Jack O'Connor's side while Joe O'Connor kicked a late goal.

The victory is Kerry's 39th overall and their first since 2022.

Golf

Padraig Harrington has a four shot lead midway through the final round of the Senior Open today.

The Dubliner lies on 15-under-par at Sunningdale, with Jason Leonard and Steven Alker in second.

Harrington is aiming to become just the fifth golfer to complete The Open and Senior Open double this evening.

Motorsport

Oscar Piastri has won the Belgian F1 Grand Prix this evening.

The McLaren driver just edged out his teammate Lando Norris after a rain delayed race this afternoon.

It stretches the Australian's lead at the top of the drivers' championship to 16 points.

Alex Dunne was stripped of his win at the Belgian F2 Feature Race today.

The junior McLaren driver thought he had picked up his third victory of the season after crossing the line first in Spa today.

However following the race he was handed a 10-second time penalty for failing to engage the start set-up procedure at the start of the Formation Lap.

That means he has been handed 11th place and falls from first in the drivers' championship to 4th in the standings.

Soccer

England are taking on Spain in this evening's Women's Euros final looking to lift the trophy for a second consecutive time.

It's a repeat of the 2023 World Cup decider, which the Spanish won.

Spain currently lead 1-0.

Cycling

Tadej Pogacar will claim his fourth Tour de France cycling title this afternoon.

He goes into the final stage into Paris with a lead of 4 minutes and 24 seconds.

The last run into the French capital is largely processional, with the yellow jersey holder not challenged.

Ireland's Ben Healy is ninth in General Classification.
