  1. That's all from us!

    FT: Tyrone 1-24 Cavan 0-20

    Another day of the Ulster SFC in the books then.

    Tyrone did the majority of their work in the first half and took a 10-point lead into the interval.

    They threatened to run away with things in the opening minutes of the second half but, thanks to Dara McVeety's haul of two-pointers, the visitors cut the deficit to just six.

    Conn Kilpatrick's goal with eight minutes remaining, though, secured safe passage through to the semi-finals.

    All without Darragh Canavan too.

    A fine start to championship football under Malachy O'Rourke for the Red Hands...it'll be a different proposition up against All-Ireland champions Armagh in the last four, though!

    You can read Orla Bannon's report from the game here.

    We'll be back on Saturday with the next quarter-final as Down host Fermanagh, again live onBBC iPlayer and BBC Two NI.

    There'll be plenty of reaction to this weekend's games, and build-up to the remaining quarter-finals, before then.

    Thanks for joining us today!

  2. 'A different kettle of fish'

    Former Tyrone forward and All-Ireland winner on BBC Sport

    You can only play what's in front of you. Armagh is going to be a massive test, they're the All-Ireland champions.

    It's going to be the old rivalry again but, look, it's a massive ask for Tyrone at the minute.

    Armagh weren't really that impressive yesterday either, but they got over the line.

    It's going to be a different kettle of fish.

  3. 'Huge for this team'

    FT: Tyrone 1-24 Cavan 0-20

    Tyrone's Kieran McGeeney, speaking to BBC Sport NI: "It was huge for this team to get over the line considering we got relegated earlier this year. We needed to put on a performance for the fans and there's always the fear factor after last year. We're just extremely glad to get through the first round."

    Injuries were always going to hurt Cavan a lot more than they were going to hurt Tyrone.

  5. FT: Tyrone 1-24 Cavan 0-20

    Sean Johnston
    Former Cavan GAA forward on BBC Two NI

    I think Cavan will be extremely disappointed with their first-half non-performance. They didn't lay a hand on Tyrone.

  6. 'Tyrone hit the ground running'

    FT: Tyrone 1-24 Cavan 0-20

    Owen Mulligan
    Former Tyrone forward and All-Ireland winner on BBC Sport

    Malachy O'Rourke will be very happy. A first day out and they hit he ground running. You can only beat what is in front you. There wasn't a finger laid on Tyrone and you get what you deserve in Championship football when you don't do those things.

  9. Big game from McCurry

    Tyrone 1-24 Cavan 0-19

    With only a couple of minutes left here in Omagh, BBC NI pundit Brendan Devenney has chosen Darren McCurry as his player of the match.

  10. Watch: Brian Kennedy with the point

    Tyrone 1-24 Cavan 0-19

    His midfield partner may have just stolen the show, but this was a fine point from Brian Kennedy 10 minutes before Kilpatrick's crucial goal.

    He burst through those first three tackles and just kept going. What a finish in the end! That's a real killer blow for Cavan.

    Conn Kilpatrick - 62mins

    That's surely that now!

    Any hopes of a Cavan comeback over as Conn Kilpatrick drives forward from midfield and drills a low finish into the net.

    A great strike from Tyrone's number nine!

    Darren McCurry provides a timely point for Tyrone.

    Up the other end, Sean McEvoy goes for yet another two-pointer...not this time!

    Brendan Devenney
    Former Donegal forward on BBC Two NI

    Anything is possible for Brian Kennedy. He is as good a midfielder as anyone out there. He is a leader and an all-round player and he's massive for Tyrone.

  18. Tyrone 0-23 Cavan 0-14

    Brian Kennedy with an impressive point for Tyrone but Dara McVeety responds with another two-pointer, his second and Cavan's fourth.

    The lead is down to single digits...they couldn't, could they?

  19. Watch: Kieran McGeary driving forward

    Tyrone 0-22 Cavan 0-12

    We mentioned Kieran McGeary earlier...here's that point that really caught the eye.

  20. Cavan finding their range

    Tyrone 0-21 Cavan 0-11

    Oisin Kiernan with another two-pointer cuts the gap to 11.

    After a Darren McCurry free, Dara McVeety follows suit and the lead is down to 10.

    Cavan will need plenty more of that if they're to get back into this one, though.
