Tyrone finished strongly to extend their unbeaten run in the Eirgrid Ulster U20 Football Championship, edging out Derry by 0-13 to 1-9 at Celtic Park as two of the highly fancied front-runners fought out a tense tactical battle.

In a dramatic finish, Johnny McGuckin brought Derry level with a stoppage time goal, but the Red Hands snatched it at the death with a Gavin Potter winner to put them in a strong position in Section A.
