Ulster SFC quarter-final: Tyrone 1-24 Cavan 0-20A SIXTH consecutive loss to bogey team Tyrone, a seventh senior Championship defeat in a row, stretching back to 2022 – but Cavan boss Raymond Galligan doesn’t feel his county is at ‘sixes and sevens’. That was true of the Breffnimen’s first half display, when their kick-out malfunctioned and they ending up trailing Tyrone by 10 points, but their comeback after 10 minutes of the second half offers hope for the All-Ireland series.

Tyrone ratings:Niall Morgan: Booked for dissent after complaining about being tipped over running back to his goal, picked himself up to put in another influential display. 7Aidan Clarke: Strong turnover to set up counter-attack for last score of first half, but was troubled by McEvoy’s pace and directness. 6Peter Teague: In a free role at times, pushed up for a score, but also lost possession with a slip while foraying forward. Solid showing, but booked late on.

The Red Hands looked good before half-time against Cavan, but were almost red-faced as the visitors came back at them in the second half, before a superb goal from Conn Kilpatrick ensured the hosts would progress.

Joe Sheridan, born near Castlederg more than a century ago, is reputed to have invented the Irish coffee – and he’s now being honoured with a whiskey named after him by Thomond Gate Limerick Whiskey.

HER young heart was beating erratically pre-match and shortly before the final whistle, but Kascie Weir did her bit to keep Northern Ireland calm and in with a chance of Nations League promotion. The teenager scored the only goal of the game early on, her first senior strike in only her fourth appearance, to edge a nervy encounter with Romania 1-0 at Windsor Park after drawing 1-1 out there last Friday.
