Derry unchanged ahead to Saturday’s Croke Park showdown

DERRY have named their team for Saturday evening’s Christy Ring Cup final against London in Croke Park (5pm).

It’s an unchanged team since their win over Wicklow booked Saturday’s spot at HQ.

Derry are in their fourth final in five years and their fifth in all, hoping this is the year they can get their hands on the Christy Ring Cup.

The Oakleafers have a full deck to pick from with Paddy Kelly and Gerald Bradley listed among the subs.

London have score 25 goals across their league and championship campaign.

Derry needed two second half goals from skipper Cormac O’Doherty to finish their comeback against London in their group game in Ruislip.

Mark Craig is in line for his 145th senior appearance for Derry – including 49 for the footballers.

Derry: Sean Kelly; Sean Cassidy, Mark Craig, Patrick Turner; Ruairi Ó Mianáin, Richie Mullan, James Friel; Meehaul McGrath, Eamon Conway; Thomas Brady, John Mullan, Cormac O’Doherty; Cahal Murray, Christy McNaughton, Shea Cassidy
