Conor McCluskey scored Derry’s first goal near the end of the first half, helping keep their hopes alive for winning a first All-Ireland Football title in over 30 years. The team held off a spirited Westmeath with a final score of 2-7 to 0-9 in Newry, advancing to the preliminary quarter-finals. The Oak Leafers led 1-5 to 0-5 at halftime, thanks to Conor McCluskey’s goal.
Needing a win to make it to the last 12 of the Sam Maguire series, Derry stretched their lead out to four points early in the second half. However, they then conceded three points in a row as Westmeath, who needed a draw to progress, sensed a major upset. Despite the tense moments, Emmett Bradley scored a goal to ease Derry’s nerves and secure their first championship win of the year.
The victory ensures Derry’s place in Monday’s draw, where they will look to build on their success and continue their journey towards the championship title.
