Armagh booked their place in the TG4 Ulster Senior Championship final in style, as they powered past Cavan 8-14 to 2-7 in front of a huge crowd in St Tiernach’s Park, Clones.
The victory means Maxi Curran's Donegal, who lost 1-15 to 2-4 to Armagh in Lifford, having beaten Cavan 1-6 to 0-4, progress to the final.
The Orchard girls had tremendous support on Sunday, as the game served as the opener for the Armagh v Derry Ulster SFC final, and Armagh got their first of eight goals on six minutes, when Niamh Coleman fisted the ball inside for the unstoppable Aimee Mackin, who dummied as though she was going to fist across goal but slotted the ball into the net with her right foot.
Mackin then added a point and literally had a hand in Armagh’s second goal when she palmed a high ball off for Kelly Mallon, scorer of 2-4 on the day, to finish into an empty net.
In-form Mackin finished with 3-7 and Armagh take on Donegal for the third successive season in the provincial final, on May 28, in Clones.
