Kevin Egan reports from King & Moffatt Dr Hyde Park .
There was more to the game than just that. Even in the early exchanges, when the scores weren’t flowing quite as fast, the contest was packed with end-to-end football and goalmouth action. Bannigan, Monaghan’s leading attacking threat throughout this game, hammered the ball into the roof of the Roscommon net from 15 metres out with 10 minutes to go before half-time to stretch that lead to six.
In the three halves of league football that were played up to that point, 11 two-pointers had been kicked at that end of the ground, stretching back to the season opener against Down. His explosive pace yielded three second-half points and a handful of other line breaks that led to scoring chances, creating another welcome selection dilemma for Davy Burke.
