Sean Kelly’s goal helped Galway lead 1-5 to 0-6 at half-time in Carrick-on-Shannon but Armagh fought back to clinch a dramatic victory
Armagh secured direct passage to the All-Ireland SFC quarter-finals after a dramatic win over Galway as Tyrone survived by drawing with Westmeath.
On a tense afternoon, Rory Grugan’s injury-time point earned Armagh a 0-16 to 1-12 win in Carrick-on-Shannon.
Tyrone were inches away from exiting as Westmeath talisman John Heslin missed a last-gasp free at Breffni Park.
That meant that the Red Hands hung on for a 0-18 to 0-18 draw when a defeat would have ended their summer.
Tyrone were left grateful to Darragh Canavan who kicked 10 points but it was another largely unconvincing display by the 2021 All-Ireland winners, who narrowly avoided a second successive early championship exit.
