David Clarke and Tom Cunniffe are injury worries for Mayo ahead of their All-Ireland SFC semi-final against Dublin.

Both were forced to retire during last Saturday's win over Donegal and, according to the Mayo Advertiser, are "touch and go" for the August 30 showdown with the Leinster champions.

Goalkeeper Clarke was replaced by Rob Hennelly after suffering a groin injury, while Chris Barrett came on for Cunniffe after the centre back sustained a hamstring injury.

The Connacht champions are also appealing the red card which defender Kevin Keane picked up in the closing stages of the Donegal game, with his case likely to be heard next week.
