Tyrone edge 19-card frenzy

The Dr McKenna Cup exploded into action at the Athletic Grounds where fierce rivals Armagh and Tyrone hammered out a ding-dong battle that produced 19 cards – four of them red.

Armagh finished with 12 men and paid the price for their indiscipline as a three points lead was overhauled by the holders, who shot the game’s final five scores.
