GALWAY’S IMPRESSIVE RECORD against Ulster counties under manager Padraic Joyce continued in Salthill this evening as Derry paid a high price for the first-half dismissal of All-Star Gareth McKinless.
Goals from Seán Kelly and Céin D’Arcy were the headline scores as the Tribesmen drew first blood in Group 1 of the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship that also includes Armagh and Westmeath.
Robert Finnerty top-scored with four points for the winners, while man of the match Paul Conroy kicked three all of 17 years on from captaining Galway to All-Ireland minor final glory against the Oak Leaf County.
