Mickey Harte is hoping Tyrone can stay in the hunt for a six in-a-row of Dr McKenna Cups by beating Donegal on Wednesday night.

The Red Hands' secured their first win of 2017 against UUJ yesterday, but qualification for the semi-finals remains out of their hands.

"We can only do what we can with our own two results, if that takes us to the semi-final, that'll be great. We can't guarantee anything," the Tyrone manager said.

Commenting on the 2-17 to 1-7 win over Martin McHugh's students, Harte added: "It was a case of getting the Christmas cobwebs out of the system.

"I wouldn't have been very happy with our first half performance and we were a bit lethargic and we were letting them dictate the pace of the game. We needed more from our players in the second half and I have to say we did get that."
