Paddy Lynch, Killian Brady and Padraig Faulkner all impressed for the Breffnimen while Rory Beggan and Darren Hughes were the pick of the Monaghan players
Monaghan ratings Rory Beggan: Justified his recall with a fine save to deny Paddy Lynch and scored 0-3, including an excellent score from play. 8Kieran Duffy: Was at fault for an early free that Lynch converted. Did well on Ciaran Brady in the first half, but struggled on Gerard Smith in the second. 6
Killian Lavelle: His switch to the heart of the Monaghan defence has been largely successful, but Paddy Lynch proved a handful on Sunday. 5.5 Ciaran McNulty: Worked hard around the middle third without exerting any major influence on proceedings. 6 Jack McCarron: Couldn’t follow up from Loughran’s goal chance and only scored one point from play, albeit a cracking score. Was well marshalled by Killian Brady. 6
Cian Reilly: Send out to mark David Garland and held him to just one point from play in the first half. 7 Niall Carolan: Won plenty of possession for Cavan and used it well. Also played the final ball for Lynch’s goal. 7
