Ulster MFC Semi-final/Armagh 2-5 Derry 1-7: Armagh turned in an amazing second-half show to snatch victory over Derry at Casement Park yesterday.

Seán Clarke punched over a point in the second minute, but Derry hit back with four unanswered points after 17 minutes. Armagh goalkeeper John McKeever brought off some superb saves but could do nothing about the Derry goal scored by Eoghan Browne, leaving his side ahead at the break by 1-5 to 0-1.

However, it was all Armagh in the second half and goals from Kyle Carragher and sub Mark McAllister brought the sides level at 2-4 to 1-7, with Jason O'Neill, two minutes from time, snatching the winning point.
