Boss Moran praises Derry's spirit
Derry manager Mickey Moran
Mickey Moran's Derry are one game away from the quarter-finals
Manager Mickey Moran lavished praise on his injury-hit Derry side after their 0-13 to 0-09 win over Limerick in the All-Ireland qualifiers.

The victory took the Oak Leafers into the last round of the qualifying series and they are now just one game away from the Championship quarter-finals.

"It has been a traumatic couple of weeks as we were decimated by a lot of injuries," said Moran.

"We did not have much time to prepare so the lads deserve great credit."

Derry were without Fergal Doherty and Enda Muldoon for the Castlebar clash but were always too strong for Limerick.

"There were others out too, and it just shows the pride, heart and commitment of the team that they produced that type of performance," added Moran.
