Umpire Tom O'Kane receives medical attention after an accidental collision with a player during the Dublin-Mayo clash at Croke Park

The umpire who was injured following an accidential collision with Colm Boyle at Croke Park tonight has made a full recovery.

Derry GAA tweeted a picture of Tom O'Kane giving the 'thumbs-up' after the Allianz Football League clash between Dublin and Mayo. Tom was treated by medics at the Davin End goal following the 54th minute incident before being carted away on a motorised stretcher, with a sideline official taking his place for the remainder of the game.

It was one of the few talking points of a disappointing encounter which Dublin won with surprising ease.
