Electric Ireland Ulster MFC quarter-final: Armagh 0-4 Derry 1-5 Derry minors deservedly defeat defensive Armagh in wind-affected contest.
MANY of the names remain the same – but the game has changed. Several Downeys, a J McGurk, and a McGuckin helped Derry minors defeat an Armagh outfit including a P McGrane, and a McConville, McKeever, King and Cunningham – although the crucial goal came from a McAleese, PJ of Kilrea, converting in sublime style in the 53rd minute.
Derry looked stronger across the whole pitch and Armagh had 11 men behind the halfway mark for large portions of this dour affair, played in arctic conditions at the Athletic Grounds in Armagh.
Armagh boss Ciaran McKeever admitted as much: “From day one when I took this job, I knew teams like Derry, Tyrone, Monaghan, and Donegal were 10 points better than Armagh. Our aim this year was to narrow the gap on those teams.
“Derry are a very athletic team and would hurt us if we were naïve and pushed up on them, left gaps in behind. We tried to mirror them as much as possible but they got in behind us in the last 10 minutes and got the decisive goal, which was the difference in the end.”
