For this particular rollercoaster clash Brendan Rogers had a front row seat. He scored a goal and two points in the first half of the Ulster final, received a black card in the second and came back on in extra-time to help Derry recover a two-point deficit and ultimately force penalties.

From that point on, he was just another helpless onlooker.
