Enjoyable game not much in it. Plenty of good scores and turnovers from both teams it could go either way this half.

Both teams with plenty of pace too!

Captain Obvious

Tyrone going too often for goals when they should be taking their points.

Still all to play for with 15 minutes to play.  Derry 1-8 Tyrone 2-6
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

N O'Donnell not know when take a shot, 2/3 times he's in a better position than the man he passes too. Tyrone doing repeated fouling here.

Derry getting caught with silly turnovers.

Mc Elholm is a silky operator.

Wildweasel74

2 many of the Derry forwards can't kick of either foot, whereas Tyrone have a few which can. They about 4 times a point was on , but the lad  couldn't kick it, as it was his bad foot.

Wildweasel74

Bad call there.Derry lad didn't swing himself round by himself, if it was 2 mins to go, that would be a free.

Brendan

Jesus it's a painful watch from a Derry point of view so many bad choices when kicking for scores

OakLeaf

Aye, a couple of decent chances to go in front there.

Wildweasel74

Too many Derry players wouldnt take the final shot there. End up in shots took when men in better positions earlier. Derry regret not winning this, they well on top. Too many lads simply avoiding taking the big decision.

Yeah, decision making is poor enough at times.

But it's been an enjoyable game.

Captain Obvious

Very nervy shooting at the end of that game. Won't be easy to call a winner in extra time.

Should have won that but what a great game!!

Also have to say I think the ref has been brilliant.

Derryman forever

Yes the Ref has been excellent.

What did the linesman tell him when he seemed about to book the defender?
