Oisin McConville says keeping tabs on Gaobh Dobhair's dangermen will be key to Crossmaglen's hopes of reaching another Ulster club SFC final.

The Donegal champions have outstanding attacking talent in the likes of Odhran MacNiallais, Cian Mulligan, Michael Carroll and veteran Kevin Cassidy, and they will need to be watched carefully according to the Cross' and Armagh great.

“The match-ups for Cross are crucial,” McConville said in the Newry Democrat ahead of Sunday's provincial semi-final in Omagh.

“If you were to think that those players don't play up to scratch then those of us in Cross' will feel it is a game that we should be winning.

“If we can nullify them, then it is up to us to take care of the game. I am sure Gweedore are looking at us too and will be thinking if they can nullify Kyle Carragher, Oisin and Rian O'Neill that they will have great chance. But I think that is a big ask given how those boys are playing.”
