Super-sub McCabe swings it for Cavan

Cavan 3-13 Down 2-12

In perhaps the most influential substitution of this year’s championship, former Allstar McCabe had a devastating impact despite boss Eamon Coleman's assertion that he was ‘playing on one leg’.

But what a leg! Down had nothing in reply as McCabe came off the bench at half-time and, amazingly, had a hand in each part of a 3-3 scoring blitz that ultimately won Cavan the game.
