Very pedestrian fare - atmosphere very muted.

Game hasn't really got going to any great extent.

Derry had a shot at goal but an easy enough save from Cluxton.

Heron puts the 45 over to go into the lead.

Being helped by some very complacent/lazy/silly play by Dublin ; but yeah their defence system is working well.

Dublin 0-2 Derry 0-3 HT

Connolly from distance to double Dublin's score at half-time.

Dublin struggling massively to deal with the blanket.

Really have the look of a team who felt all they had to do was turn up and Derry would kindly oblige them in being beaten handily.

Fascinating game of chess.

Dublin with 9 wides and 2 short for a total of 2 from 13 in the shooting stakes in the first half.

Derry with 5 wides and 2 short plus 1 shot at goal saved for a total of 3 from 11 in the first half.

Dublin pretty much giving a master-class in how not to play against a blanket.

Chess would be more exciting in fairness.

Regardless of the game plan Derry have brought to the table Dublin's shooting has been shite.

It's not the point most football folk are making, change the rules before we end up with one horrible game. Ulster sides have brought this shit to a new level because they just don't have it in them to play ball but you can't reward the lesser footballers because of an ideology based on basterdising our game.

Missed a few handy ones early on alright, but a lot of the misses have been due to being forced to kick from distance, or being pressured on the shot.
