Mullinalaghta struck a blow for the underdog today and manager Mickey Graham was “lost for words” in the immediate aftermath of their historic two-point victory.
Speaking to TG4’s GAA BEO shortly after referee David Gough sounded the final whistle in O'Connor park, Graham enthused: “It’s unbelievable, I’m lost for words. Them lads, what they did out there today is phenomenal, just the work ethic of them.
“Nobody gave us a chance coming in here today, everybody wrote us off bar the lads. Didn’t they deliver in spades!”
The newly appointed Cavan manager continued: “It just shows you, with hard work, that small teams, if they have a panel of players willing to make the sacrifices, this can be achieved.
“This gives every little club throughout the country some hope that the underdog still has a chance. There’s always one chance and we took that chance today.”
