O'Callaghan named on Dubs' bench for Derry showdown

Dublin manager Dessie Farrell has named ace attacker Con O’Callaghan in his squad for tomorrow’s crunch All-Ireland SFC third round clash against Derry in Newry.

The Cuala clubman came off injured against Galway in the opening round of the Sam Maguire Cup series and missed the capital men’s defeat to Armagh at Croke Park last time out.

He returns to the bench for the Dubs this weekend, with one change in personnel to the line-up which took on the All-Ireland champions two weeks ago seeing John Small coming in to replace Colm Basquel.

Also included on a strong looking Dublin bench with O’Callaghan are Tom Lahiff, who grabbed the late winner against Galway a month ago, and Eoin Murchan.

Throw-in at Pairc Esler is at 6.30pm.
