A wide from Cregg. Roscommon have started this game well and are getting plenty of possession to their forward line. They will need to take their chances, however, considering the talent Tyrone can spring from their bench.
30 Jul 2011
4:40PM

4:48PM

30 Jul 2011
4:49PM
Roscommon are playing very well at the moment. Senan Kilbride, in particular, is catching the eye but the question now is whether they will be able to maintain their momentum or not.
30 Jul 2011
4:51PM

30 Jul 2011

30 Jul 2011
5:01PM
The Rossies have made Tyrone look vulnerable at the back at times, which is no easy accomplishment.
30 Jul 2011

30 Jul 2011

30 Jul 2011
5:14PM
Brian Dooher and Owen Mulligan have been called into the action by Mickey Harte.
30 Jul 2011

30 Jul 2011
5:24PM

30 Jul 2011
5:25PM
McDermott gets the Rossies’ scoreboard ticking over again but Mulligan, on at the break, hits back for Tyrone.
30 Jul 2011
5:27PM
Two more scores from Shine and Mannion sees the Roscommon fightback continue. There are now two points between the teams. Tyrone ahead: 1-15 to 1-13
30 Jul 2011
5:28PM
Dooher and Mulligan have made a difference since coming on but the Rossies are getting more ball in recent minutes.
30 Jul 2011
5:31PM
Shine’s latest effort has fallen short of the target. Time is ticking away for the Connacht side at this stage.
30 Jul 2011
5:35PM
The next vital score comes for Tyrone as Colm Cavanagh fists the ball over the bar – his second point of the game. Roscommon need to main focus and discipline here as they’ve had a couple of players booked in recent minutes and need to be at full strength if they are to have any chance.
30 Jul 2011
5:37PM
Harte has opted to introduce even more experience from his bench in the form of Enda McGinley.

30 Jul 2011
5:47PM
Cavanagh is the man that seals it surely – a second goal suggests he is back to his very best. 2-19 to 1-14
30 Jul 2011
5:49PM
GOAL for Tyrone: Disaster for Roscommon. Mark Donnelly fires past Claffey. 3-19 to 1-14
30 Jul 2011
5:50PM
Harte still has time to bring Stephen O’Neill into the action, though he’s on the pitch just seconds before the full-time whistle blows.
30 Jul 2011
5:55PM
FULL TIME: Tyrone 3-19 1-14 Roscommon. Tyrone lead by a single point at the break but had enough experience about them to pull away and survive a mini revival from Roscommon in the second half. An 11-point winning margin isn’t quite reflective of what the Connacht side contributed to the match but it is Harte’s men that go on to face Dublin.
