Jesus lads but derry are hard to watch. Just when I thought we were getting away from the defensive stuff. Donegal are fairly defensive too. Not looking forward to the final
You might have a point if Derry won their last two games 0-10 to 0-9.
To be fair the opposition played into their hands.
Their defence won the game for them. Forced Monaghan into kicking a significant amount of wides
Derry defended better against Tyrone. Today 0-17 conceded and Monaghan had another 13 scoring opportunities, granted Derry with their intensity and hard tackling played their part in how wasteful Monaghan was however Derry will have to improve defensively if they are to beat Donegal in the final.
What won it for Derry most today was getting three goals and could have scored a few more. The way Monaghan was caught out on all of them was more like a minor team than established division 1 and that's on Banty with Gallagher out smarting him.
