Ulster Senior Football Championship Final: Tyrone v Antrim Match Pick...

Antrim meet Tyrone in the Ulster SFC final in Clones on Sunday, 2.00pm.

Antrim have named an unchanged team for Sunday's Ulster SFC final against Tyrone at Clones. Maanager Liam Bradley keeps the faith with the team that started in the victory over Cavan last time out.

Antrim Team:
P Graham; C Brady, A McClean, K O'Boyle; T Scullion, J Crozier, J Loughrey; M McCann, A Gallagher; T O'Neill, K Brady, N McKeever; P Cunningham (captain), S Burke, T McCann


Brian Dooher will make his first start for Tyrone since last year's All-Ireland final triumph over Kerry in Sunday's Ulster SFC final against Antrim.

The Red Hand captain missed all of the National League following groin surgery, but is fit to take his place at right half forward where he indirectly replaces Enda McGinley, who strained his hamstring in training last weekend.

Sean Cavanagh moves from full forward to partner Kevin Hughes at midfield, while Joe McMahon has recovered from the rib injury he sustained in the semi-final win over Derry to take his place on the left flank of the attack.

Corner back PJ Quinn and All-Star full back Justin McMahon are starting their first Ulster SFC final, with McMahon having featured as a sub in the final win over Monaghan two years ago.

Tyrone Team:
J Devine; PJ Quinn, Justin McMahon, R McMenamin; D Harte, C Gormley, P Jordan; K Hughes, S Cavanagh; B Dooher, T McGuigan, Joe McMahon; M Penrose, S O'Neill, O Mulligan.


Winner: Tyrone
