Down team named for Ulster semi-final showdown with Armagh

By Michael McMullan

DOWN have named their squad for Sunday’s Ulster semi-final clash with rivals Armagh in Clones.

Conor Laverty’s side booked their place after an impressive win over reigning champions Donegal on Sunday in Letterkenny.

It’s an unchanged team with Pearse McPolin and Caolan Mooney – late inclusions last week – retained.

Danny Magill is an interesting name on the standby list after a lengthy spell out injured.

Armagh firmly on red alert ahead of semi-final says Aaron Kernan

The winners will play Derry or Monaghan who lock horns in the other semi-final on Saturday in Armagh.
