Donegal were comfortable winners against Armagh this evening in their NFL Division 1 clash at MacCumhaill Park in Ballybofey.
In the end it was 0-21 to 1-10 to Jim McGuinness's reigning Ulster champions.
The result also puts them top of the table, ahead of second-place Galway, as they remain the only unbeaten side in their group.
However, the most notable incident of the game came just after half-time, when the legendary Michael Murphy - in his comeback season - made his way off the bench and onto the pitch.
He was met by Armagh captain Aidan Forker, and the two began to barge and tussle with each other.
And while trying to assert his dominance, Forker went way too far and headbutted Murphy in the chest, akin to the infamous Zidane headbutt on Italy's Marco Materazzi in the 2006 FIFA World Cup final.
To nobody's surprise, referee Seán Hurson showed red to the 32-year-old for his moment of madness.
