All-Ireland football final: A beginner’s guide to GAA rules and scoring

• Gaelic football is a popular, fast-paced Irish sport played by two teams of 15 players on a pitch slightly larger than a football field.
• The objective is to score by putting the ball into the opponents' net for three points or between the posts and above the crossbar for one point.
• Matches last 70 minutes and are played with a ball slightly smaller than a standard football.
• Players can advance the ball by kicking it from their hands, along the ground, or by fist-passing it to a teammate.
• When carrying the ball, players are limited to four steps before they must either bounce it or kick it up and catch it again.
