    Fermanagh 0-0 Armagh 2-2

    A ruthless second goal for Armagh, who have really come to life in the last five minutes.

    Jarly Og Burns takes advantage of a slack pass from the kick out and drives forward before laying it off to Andrew Murnin.

    His low shot is stopped by Ross Bogue, but the rebound falls to Burns to tap home.

    A long way back into the contest already for Fermanagh you feel, who have just also lost Ronan McCaffrey to injury.

  2. goal

    Fermanagh 0-0 Armagh 1-2

    What a move and what a goal for Armagh!

    Rory Grugan weaved his way past two challenges before fisting it off, unselfishly to Coor Turbitt who smashed home from close range.

    A goal that their dominance so far has merited.

    Fermanagh 0-0 Armagh 0-2

    Ultan Kelm is shown a black card for hauling down Oisin Conaty, just as Antrim had an overload and were ready to break.

    That is a blow so early in the game.

    You get very few of them in your career, a goal-line clearance like that. Fermanagh will need to take those chances.

    That was really Fermanagh's first sniff and Ultan Kelm did brilliantly, first to take on Rian O'Neill and Conor Turbitt down the left and then to pick out Oisin Smyth.

    Smyth probably thought he was going to raise a green flag after spinning past Blaine Hughes, but Aaron McKay had other ideas.

    Great football all round.

    Fermanagh 0-0 Armagh 0-2

    What a block from Aaron McKay on the line to deny Fermanagh what looked to be a clear goal!

    A looping ball into the box from Ultan Kelm is missed by Armagh goalkeeper Blaine Hughes as it falls kindly for Oisin Smyth.

    He fires towards goal, but McKay manages to get in the way to turn it behind.

    Kelm then hits an effort wide, as does Paddy Burns at the other end.

    An end-to-end start to this one.

    Fermanagh 0-0 Armagh 0-2

    Armagh were the favourites going into this game and are keen to show why early on as they are dominating possession.

    Rian O'Neill, from distance, bends home an impressive second point for the Orchard county.

    A bright start for Armagh with Andrew Murnin curling home the opening point of the game.

    Fermanagh 0-0 Armagh 0-0

    A little bit of pushing and shoving just like yesterday's encounter between Conor Mackin and Aaron McKay before throw-in.

    We are now under way in Brewster Park, let's hope for a more entertaining game than yesterday at Pairc Esler.

    This Armagh team, everyone's tipping them to go far this year but the jury's still out on them. They have a few big guns back. We're hoping for proper Ulster Championship fare and that it's a good game.

    I've walked on the pitch and it's moist and wet on the right side. I think the conditions will suit Fermanagh. Let's hope it's a better game than yesterday (Down v Antrim).

  14. Can Ernemen repeat 2018 heroics?published at 13:50 British Summer Time 14 April

    Armagh fans always come out in big numbers and it's no different at Brewster today. I nearly got taken out by a couple of excitable youngsters sprinting their way to what I can only assume was the tuck shop.

    Armagh, like they were here in 2018, are favourites today and boast a serious amount of firepower with Conor Turbitt, Andrew Murnin and Oisin Conaty, who earns his first championship start after an impressive league campaign.

    Rian O'Neill, of whom we didn't see much in the league, starts in midfield this afternoon for the Orchard.

    If Fermanagh are to have any chance of repeating their 2018 heroics, they will need Garvan Jones to shoot the lights out like he did against Cavan in the Erne's last league game. He hit 1-8 - 1-7 of which was from play - that day.

    A similar haul today would go a long way to causing an(other) upset.

    Armagh captain Aidan Forker says last year's two heartbreaking championship penalty shootout defeats hasn't psychologically damaged the squad.

    "It's definitely not a cloud over the group," said Forker, 33.
