Power NI Dr McKenna Cup semi-final: Derry v Tyrone at Omagh on Sunday (2pm)
Despite still not having his university players available for selection, Derry senior football manager Brian McIver has named a squad full of youth and experience for Sunday’s McKenna Cup semi-final against holders Tyrone in Omagh.
Like many positions, the goalkeeping spot continues to be rotated with the Loup’s Thomas Mallon starting between the posts. Having impressed earlier in the competition, Oisin Duffy and Michael McShane return to a full back line which sees Dermot McBride captain the team from the central position.
The Dungiven duo of Craig and Johnston retain half back slots from the recent win over St Mary’s at Owenbeg with Niall Holly and Fergal Doherty forming the midfield partnership.
Gerard O’Kane comes in for his second start in a week – this time in a forward unit which sees Magherafelt’s Emmett McGuckin on the ’45 with Claudy’s Aaron Kerrigan retaining the corner forward slot after several impressive displays.
