Bord Gáis Energy Ulster GAA Hurling U-21 Semi Final
Derry v Armagh
Casement Park, 8.15pm

Derry take on Armagh in the second of Wednesday night’s Bord Gáis Energy Ulster GAA Hurling U-21 semi finals at Casement Park.

Armagh come into this match off a comfortable 11 point win over Ulster U-21 Hurling Shield winners Fermanagh.  Early goals in each half ensured the win for the Orchard County whose lead was never under any real threat from the Ernesiders and captain Nathan Curry, top scorer Michael Lennon and minor captain James King will be leading the charge to repeat the form they showed at Brewster Park.

Derry, however, with the likes of Lee Hawkins, Dara McCloskey, Cailean O’Boyle and Conor McSorely on the books, are a different prospect to Fermanagh.  The Oak Leafs lost out on a provincial treble last year, beaten to the title by Antrim, and it is likely that, even without the game Armagh have under their belts, Derry will be too strong for them.
