Mayo GAA's Cillian O’Connor has been recognised for his ruthless display against Tipperary after being voted the PwC GAA/GPA Fottball Player of the Month for the All-Ireland semi-finals.

O’Connor is the highest scorer in football championship history and he showed his skills again last Sunday when he bagged 4-9 as Mayo beat Tipperary to set up a Sam Maguire showdown with five in-a-row champions Dublin on December 19.

The Player of the Month semi-finals award is a special award in 2020 to acknowledge the performances of some of the best talent in the GAA in what is a shorter than usual inter-county season.

Uachtarán Cumann Lúthchleas Gael, John Horan said: “Cillian's display against Tipperary will live long in the memory of GAA people for years to come as his Mayo side were ruthless in their hunt to get back to another All-Ireland final.

The PwC GAA/GPA Player of the Month Awards are voted for by the GPA’s membership.
