He helped himself to two points before setting up the decisive goal which powered them to victory. Ballaghaderreen, who were trailing 0-13 to 0-8 late in the game, were down by one point with time almost up.
Moran took a quick free to supply the pass into Conor Moriarty who applied the finish to raise the vital green flag.
That proved to be the final score of the game as Ballaghaderreen survived to stay in the top tier for 2027. The result caps a memorable season for Moran who helped Mayo end a 75-year famine to land the Sam Maguire after a thrilling All-Ireland final against Kerry.
