Meath's Conor Ennis and John Mannion celebrate Meath's All Ireland MFC final win at Croke Park
RTÉ news reporter Teresa Mannion was in Croke Park last Saturday to cheer on Meath to a memorable All-Ireland minor football final victory over Tyrone.
The Galway-based journalist is an aunt of Meath player John Mannion and was pictured celebrating with him after the Royal County won a thrilling contest by a point.
While John didn't see action in the final, his goal against Sligo in the semi-final helped them to get there. His famous auntie has been a familiar face on TV for many years, but is perhaps best known for her live report from a Storm Desmond-battered Salthill for RTE News in December of 2015.
