    Former Donegal captain and All-Ireland winner on BBC Sport

    I think Donegal will be worried. It was very composed from Armagh.

    They found pockets of space. Seven different scores, two from Crealey in the middle of the field who you wouldn't be thinking of, four from the forwards.The spread of scorers is there for Armagh and the composure is there.

    Donegal have to be a lot more aggressive.

  3. Wides few and far betweenpublished at 16:53 British Summer Time 12 May

    HT: Armagh 0-10 Donegal 0-9

    Armagh had 14 attacks in that first half, getting off 13 shots for ten scores.

    For Donegal, it was 11 shots off 18 attacks and nine scores.

    I just feel the long distance shooting is helping Armagh.

    Donegal are backing off and they're putting the ball over the bar.

    They need to keep doing that.

  6. 'Very little needle'published at 16:46 British Summer Time 12 May

    HT: Armagh 0-10 Donegal 0-9

    Michael Murphy
    Former Donegal captain and All-Ireland winner on BBC Sport

    If we're being really critical the defending has been quite poor.

    The lack of contact, very little needle.

    The low block, when you bring everyone into your own 45, it's very risky because it just takes one slip to allow an attacker through and they're already in the scoring zone.

    Armagh, whilst we sometimes criticise their ability to break down defences, they were excellent at it there.

  7. 'Both teams will be fairly satisfied'published at 16:44 British Summer Time 12 May

    HT: Armagh 0-10 Donegal 0-9

    Oisin McConville
    Armagh All-Ireland winner on BBC Sport

    It was cagey but the quality that both teams showed in front of goal was brilliant.

    Donegal didn't have a wide until the 32nd minute. They were very efficient in what they did. Similar to when they played against Derry.

    There's a lot more to happen but both teams will be fairly satisfied with how the first-half has gone.

  8. What a display of shooting.published at 16:41 British Summer Time 12 May

    HT: Armagh 0-10 Donegal 0-9

    Nineteen points in that half and 17 of them from play.

    Fine finishing from both sides.

  9. Half-timepublished at 16:39 British Summer Time 12 May

    Armagh 0-10 Donegal 0-9

    That Crealey point enough for Armagh to take a one-point lead into half-time.

    Maybe a sense that the game is still waiting to really spark into life but there can be no complaints about the quality of the shooting.

    We've seen some high-quality points here in a now sodden Clones.

    Ben Crealey calls for the mark and, from more than 35 yards in a central position, knocks it over the bar.

    Armagh nudge ahead a minute before half-time.

    The quality of the scoring really has been something else in this first half.

    So much so that, even from an almighty distance, it feels a real surprise when Rian O'Neill's effort sails wide.

    A huge roar greets the latest crack of thunder and the rain is really starting to cascade down now.

    Can we have the sun back, please?

    There's the forecast thunder and lightning.

    How will the conditions impact the game here?

    That's the FIFTH of the day for Oisin Gallen.

    He's having a huge influence on this Ulster final.

    Shane O''Donnell brings us level with another fine point.

    Will we ever see a wide again? Great shooting from both sides here in Clones.

  17. Turbitt 'the main threat'published at 16:29 British Summer Time 12 May

    I've mentioned that Armagh are going to have to kick from distance. Conor Turbitt is coming out around the 45 metre line - Armagh are going to have to lock him down, he is the main threat in getting scores around that distance.

    The atmosphere in here today really is crackling. The Armagh roar for that Ciaran Mackin score was electric.

    It's a massive crowd and must be pretty much at capacity.

    It's gotten dark out there though and the umbrellas and ponchos are out. The rain has arrived.

    Scores continuing to come thick and fast.

    Ciaran Mackin puts Armagh ahead.

    You have a great view of the managers patrolling their respective areas from the Clones pressbox.

    They both look fairly relaxed admittedly given the high-intensity start to this game.

    McGuinness, as always, is extremely vocal and he enjoyed Daire O Baoill's point a few moments ago to put Donegal two points up.
