The sheer carnival delight of the Monaghan players racing towards their goalkeeper Rory Beggan to celebrate, recalled Italia ‘90 and they move into the last four of the championship for the first time since 2018 and only the third time in 35 years
This has been a terrific year for the county. Vinny Corey eventually took the manager’s job last autumn when it looked as if an appointment was never going to be made. He has since kept the county in Division One and now reached the last four of the championship.It’s very tough on Armagh to have lost this way yet again.
In the 26th minute, Stefan Campbell wove through the cover intent on exposing a goal shot but just as he pulled the trigger, Gary Mohan hurled himself in the way and averted the danger. The match had opened with Aidan Forker joining the attack and firing over the first score. Forker went on to have an excellent match, adding another point and a pretty big assist for Armagh’s 69th-minute equaliser, which brought extra time.
Monaghan missed some good chances just before half-time, leaving themselves a point adrift, 0-5 to 0-6. Not terminal but disappointing not to have led at the break.
