Get Hawk-Eye to Clones
Monaghan are Ulster senior football champions and nothing is going to change that now after an incredible 0-11 to 0-10 win over Donegal this afternoon in Clones.
Monaghan led at the break by 0-8 to 0-4 and despite going the last 25 minutes of the second half without a score, they held on for a narrow win.
They had to withstand a last gasp shot from Patrick McBrearty that arrowed towards the post but was judged to have gone wide which would have forced the game to a replay.
Some people felt that it was a legitimate score

But TV replays were inconclusive and others such as referee Paud O'Dwyer from Carlow were firm it was not a score

It certainly looked very much like a point in our eyes, and now a Monaghan player has admitted to RTE radio that he felt it was also a point.
Vinny Corey was speaking on this evening's Marty Squad and told Marty Morrissey that he felt the shot was over the bar.
What do you think?
