Watch: match officials come under attack after Derry SFC game

A mass brawl breaks out at the end of the Derry SFC quarter-final between Greenlough and Ballinascreen in Dungiven.

Derry CCC are expected to launch an investigation into the disturbing scenes which marred the end of Saturday's county SFC quarter-final between Greenlough and Ballinascreen in Dungiven.

Referee Damien Harkin and one of his umpires were allegedly assaulted at the end of the game which Ballinascreen won by a point, 0-13 to 1-9. The match officials were surrounded by disgruntled Greenlough players and supporters after the final whistle on what was another bad day for the GAA on the disciplinary front.
