McMahon back in action for Tyrone

JOE McMAHON will make his first appearance for the Tyrone senior footballers since suffering a broken jaw in a club game two months ago in Sunday’s Ulster SFC semi-final against Donegal at Clones.

Manager Mickey Harte has included him at full-back instead of Cathal McCarron in one of two changes from the team that defeated Monaghan at the quarter-final stage. Kevin Hughes, who missed the win over Monaghan through injury, returns to midfield, taking over from Aidan Cassidy, who has been ruled out by a damaged ankle.

Galway manager Tomás Ó’Flatharta has handed senior championship debuts to four of the All-Ireland U21 winning team for Sunday’s Connacht SFC semi-final clash with Mayo.
