BBC Sport NI at Breffni ParkIt's an awful night in Cavan but it hasn't kept the faithful away!
Nearly 12,000 have made their way to Breffni Park this evening... the majority with umbrellas!
A good show by both sets of fans on a miserable Saturday night.

BBC Sport NI at Breffni ParkArmagh have been criticised for a lack of goals this year but they were queuing up there to get one past Raymond Galligan.
Only Armagh's fourth major of the season but it could be an important one as they are streaking clear without having to hit top gear.
Cavan have gone into their shell and look short of confidence. Mickey Graham has his work cut out at half time while Armagh will be delighted how this going by half time.
