Derry v Donegal

Why are commentators saying both teams are playing a defensive system? Donegal, the way they set up, force their opponents to play a sweeper because Donegal bring forwards back so the only option you have is to keep your defenders back. It seems Jimmy is a one trick pony that has been found out.

God, Donegal give me ire.
This is like watching greco-roman wrestling.

They must have read my post!!

Jinxy · May 25, 2014, 03:06:44 PM

Game on now Ger.

AQMP · May 25, 2014, 03:08:23 PM

Jaysus what a score by Murphy!

Derry getting cleaned at midfield now.

Jinxy · May 25, 2014, 03:13:02 PM

Wow.
Donegal are actually kicking the ball to the best full forward in the country.
This is revolutionary.

Murphy does a Cavanagh.

Did Derry go on the Buckfast at half time?

What happened Fergal Doherty?

McQuillan is an absolutely atrocious referee - Gallagher took 4 steps and he called for over carrying??? Hes not blowing for clear fouls - no set of rules are any good for any sport unless correctly administered...

Ref gets black card decision correst sensation!

The good start to the second half won that game for Donegal they should reach the final now however the winner of the Monaghan,Tyrone semi final should win Ulster.

it's worth pointing out that Derry's last 3 All-Ireland Quarter Final appearances were from coming out of the qualifiers.

Anyone but Donegal

Well done Donegal. They dug really deep for that.
