Kieran McGeeney’s Armagh off the mark

Armagh picked up a first competitive win under new manager Kieran McGeeney with a 2-11 to 1-1 victory over Antrim yesterday.

Second-half goals from Stefan Forker and Oisin MacIomhair gave the Orchard County an easy win in Creggan to keep them in the hunt for a place in the McKenna Cup semi-final.

Armagh could go through from Section C as the best runners-up if they record a big win over St Mary’s on Wednesday.
