Galway boss hails majesty of Meehan

Galway 1-15 Derry 0-15

Both will be pleased with the way they played into the strong wind at the Salthill venue but will be alarmed at the lack of intensity and execution when they had the elements at their backs.

Derry scored 0-11 into the wind but only 0-4 with it in the first-half and McIver had no doubt this was when the damage was done, not least as it took 13 minutes to get a first score via PJ McCloskey.
