One change to Longford team that will face Cork in Saturday's All-Ireland football qualifier

Glennon Brothers Pearse Park will host Saturday’s showdown.

LONGFORD HAVE MADE one change for Saturday’s All-Ireland senior football qualifier against Cork as they seek to build on their shock win over Monaghan in the last round.

Barry O’Farrell, who came off the bench in the first-half last Saturday in Clones, is named to start on this occasion at wing-forward. Paul McGee is the player to lose out as he drops to the bench.

Cork will name their side for the game tomorrow night for what will be the first ever senior football championship tie between the counties.

Throw-in at Glennon Brothers Pearse Park is 3pm.
