Donegal done all the hard work in the first half banking a lead of 7 points at the break 1-9 to 0-5 and managed the game out in the second half to win by 1-16 to 0-15 against Tyrone. Cavan started in the same vein in Clones this afternoon, establishing an early lead and while their second half game management may not have matched Donegal’s with Armagh bringing the gap back to the minimum with 6 minutes remaining, the Breffni men finished very strongly with six of the last seven points for 0-23 to 0-17 win.
