Tyrone go into overdrive after helping hand from Canavan
Marking his return after a ten months absence through injury with a magnificent point shortly after his late second-half substitution, it inspired the All-Ireland champions to overwhelm inconsistent Galway in Croke Park on Saturday and earn them a place in the fourth round of qualifiers.
Canavan’s introduction came at the stage when the game was delicately balanced, timed for maximum effect. And, just like in the All-Ireland final when he was brought back on near the end after playing for just the first half, it achieved its objective handsomely.
