Donegal to host Tyrone in 2020 blockbuster

written by Chris McNulty October 9, 2019

DONEGAL will cross swords once more with Tyrone in a mouth-watering 2020 Ulster SFC quarter-final.

Donegal have been drawn on the hot side of the pairing with Sean MacCumhaill Park again set to host a blockbuster against the Red Hands.

Donegal put Tyrone to the sword in an Ulster semi-final this year in Clones, but lost in a 2018 Super 8 clash at MacCumhaill Park.

The draw for the 2020 Ulster SFC was made live on Morning Ireland on RTÉ Radio 1 this morning.

The Donegal-Tyrone game is the plum tie from any of the four provincial draws made over the last three mornings.

Peeking a little into the distance past the Tyrone clash, the victor has been paired with the winner of the Derry-Armagh quarter-final. Derry are now managed by former Donegal boss Rory Gallagher.
