You'd hope the wide given as a score isn't a factor in the result.

Unfortunately it was. Great second half.

Some game, fair result imo. Thought we managed the black card period very well, and when we came out on the better end of it, I'd thought we'd kick on and win. But Derry showed what makes them back to back Ulster champs, and finished off very strong. But Karl stood up in a huge way at the end with a massive equaliser, brilliant game from him today. Been our best player in the championship too. Some career he's had for a lad who only took up the sport when he was nearly 18.

Derry diving caught out. Hateful tactics
Was delighted the ref was strong enough to give the free against the fellow for charging his way out. 9 refs out of 10 give a free out for that. Monaghan missed the free though - costly in the end

Fair F's to Vinny for his preparation of the team for this game considering the huge chasm to cross after the semi final. Happy enough with the draw seeing as we were in desperation last chance zone and the icing on that cake was that it was brilliantly executed by Karl O'Connell.

Gareth McKinless loves a dive. Surely referees have copped his antics now.

Karl O'Connell, as good as he was, dived a lot too. The ref was very good spotting dives in fairness to him.

Yep while it was disappointing not to win that, Vinny made some big calls and they were all the right ones. For a fella in his fledgling days of a managerial career, he's making a very good account of himself

Brave call not to start Conor McManus, Jack McCarron, Darren and Kieran Hughes and leave it late before bringing them on.

That free kick from Beggan is as good as you'll see. Outstanding.
