Galway Still In Championship Hunt Following Draw With Derry - Commentary And Reaction

Galway are still in the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship following a dramatic draw with Derry in Celtic Park on Sunday.

A late Matthew Tierney goal looked to have given Galway the win, but Derry equalised with the last kick of the game from Conor Doherty.

It means that the group will go down to the final day with Galway taking on Armagh and Derry playing Dublin.

A win for Galway will see them through to the Preliminary Quarter Finals.
