DONEGAL have been given a home tie in the Nicky Rackard Cup.

After a home win over Longford on Saturday, Mickey McCann’s men welcome Armagh to O’Donnell Park on Saturday.

Tyrone will face Mayo at Healy Park in the other round 2A game at 2pm.

Second-half goals by Richie Ryan and Ronan McDermott gave Donegal a 2-13 to 1-14 win over Longford.

Donegal lost Declan Coulter to injury at half-time and McCann will hope to call on the Setanta ace. Donegal could also welcome Danny Cullen, Davin Flynn and Pádraig Doherty back into the reckoning.
