Romp for Armagh despite misses

Armagh 2-17 Wicklow 2-7: Shooting practice will be taking centre stage at Armagh training sessions over the next two weeks, with Kieran McGeeney labelling some of their misses in the Athletic Grounds on Saturday as "criminal".

Despite racking up 2-17, Armagh missed three easy goal chances in the opening quarter which should have put this first round All-Ireland SFC qualifier to bed.

Wicklow, to their credit, hung on and capitalised on two Armagh blunders under the high ball into the square to score goals in each half from John McGrath and James Stafford to twice bring them back into the game.
