Tyrone call up for soccer star McCullagh

Tyrone boss Mickey Harte has handed Omagh Town soccer player Colm McCullagh his first senior start for the All-Ireland champions ahead of Sunday's McKenna Cup clash with Antrim.

Corner-forward McCullagh is captain of the Smirnoff Irish League side but is keen to follow up his GAA ambitions and impressed as a substitute against Derry last weekend leading to a first team start.

McCullagh now faces a massive choice and he will be reminded by Donegal star Brendan Devenney who faced near burn out combining soccer with GAA.

Tyrone (SF v Antrim): P McDonnell, R McMenamin, C Gormley, M McGee, C Holmes, G Devlin, C Gourley, K Hughes, G Cavlan, M Coleman, B McGuigan, S O'Neill, C McCullagh, O Mulligan, S Mulgrew.
