The GAA has launched an investigation into the Hawkeye failure at Croke Park today - but expects the technology to be in use for next Sunday's All-Ireland SFC semi-final

A statement by the GAA read: 'Following an inconsistency in the generation of a graphic by Hawkeye during today's minor hurling semi-final, the decision was taken to suspend use of the score detection system for the senior game.

'A full review of the technology, in conjunction with Hawkeye, commenced this evening and its finding will be examined by the GAA tomorrow.

'It is expected that Hawkeye will be in full working order for next Sunday's minor and senior football semi-finals'.
