Match-winner McGuinness ready to face Dublin

He turned from linkman to finisher last Saturday but what Malachy O’Rourke has in store for Chris McGuinness against Dublin is anyone’s guess, including the player himself.

With Kieran Hughes moving out the field, McGuinness was summoned to join Conor McManus in the full-forward line.

There he scored a handsome tally of 1-3, his extra-time goal virtually sealing Monaghan’s All-Ireland quarter-final place.
