Momentum is with in-form Armagh

ARMAGH enter the All-Ireland MFC quarter-final against Kildare at Kingspan Breffni Park (2pm) on the back of a hot streak of form.

They downed a fancied Tyrone side in the Ulster quarter-final and confidently dispatched Monaghan in the semi-final.

The provincial final meeting with Down was a low-key encounter but in a tight match, Armagh held their nerve to ensure a win with Rory Grugan striking late points. Grugan has been in excellent scoring form all year with Robbie Tasker and Gavin McParland their other key attackers.
