Tyrone had won three All-Irelands in the previous decade and were chasing a fourth Ulster title in five years. Up against them were Donegal, with a new manager in Jim McGuinness, but with a justified flaky reputation.

Molloy was sprung late on and found the net with the clock ticking down to give his team a 2-6 to 0-9 victory. After that, things were never the same again – for Donegal or Tyrone. “From the very first meeting Jim had with the panel the previous winter, Tyrone were talked about from day one,” recalled Molloy. “Even before we played Antrim and Cavan, Tyrone were being mentioned at training.mafioso hoodie “They were constantly in our heads. assassin's creed hoodie jinxJim basically said that we had to knock Tyrone off their perch.fluttershy hoodie for sale “We played them up in the League that year in Omagh and beat them, and that was probably a turning point for that Donegal squad.wholesale clothing uk ex chainstore

“The belief was there then that we could do a job on them. “We felt that it was the Ulster final. That was no disrespect to Derry but we felt that, if we beat Tyrone, we’d win it. “It was our chance to get our heads up out of the dirt and show what we were about.” Tyrone had dominated the first half but Donegal hung in and, with the game in the balance, McGuinness turned to a man he knew well.corvette c4 hoodie “I was meant to come on a lot earlier but the game was swinging back and forth. bape tiger hoodie for saleThere didn’t seem to be a stop at all,” said Molloy. “I’d played with Jim with the club and he knew I was a goalscorer and he just said ‘get in there and get a goal for us’. “As I was running on, I said back to him ‘I will, don’t worry about it’. “We turned the ball over in defence and worked it up the field.

Michael (Murphy) took a massive hit and got the ball on to me inside. “I got a bit of stick with people saying that I should have fisted over the bar. “But, if I got the same chance again, I’d still have done the same thing. “It was always ‘goal’ in my head. Tyrone had a chance afterwards so a point wouldn’t have been good enough. “A goal was the killer blow. It finished them off and it was a massive victory for us.” Since then, Donegal have taken Tyrone’s scalp on three other occasions in Championship football, and there has been no shortage of controversy – not just at senior level – when the two counties meet. There is no segregation at grounds but one of the great and enduring myths in the GAA is that all rivalries are friendly ones. Wonder if Karl Lacey feels like that? The then Footballer of the Year was sitting in the Omagh stand three years ago when Tyrone took down Donegal in a League match, and was spat on by a Tyrone ‘supporter’.

There was a nasty edge to that game, and it is clear that bad blood has boiled up between the two counties. Bitter rivalries are nothing new in Ulster football Back in 1995, the current Derry manager Damien Barton talked of a ”terrible hatred” creeping into the game, following a stormy clash between his county and Tyrone. Former Dublin centre-back Keith Barr hit the nail on the head a couple of years back. “In Ireland, the biggest bastard in the world is always the fella from the next parish, and this forms the basis of GAA rivalry; intense, bitter, nasty, don’t-give-an-inch rivalry,” he said. Remember the furore over sledging aimed at Donegal minor Micheal Carroll in a win over Tyrone last year? Declan Bonner was manager of that Donegal minor team. This year, he took charge of the Under-21s but was hit with a six-month ban (reduced to three, on appeal) after incidents at the end of Donegal’s defeat to Tyrone. As for Molloy, he is still only 25 but took a break from inter-county football at the start of 2015.

His last Championship appearance was in the 2014 All-Ireland final defeat to Kerry when he came off the bench to score a point. Molloy still hopes to wear the Donegal jersey again, and still savours the memory of his day of days against Tyrone five years ago “It was a sweet feeling. It’s not often you’re going to get the winning goal in the last minute of a massive game,” he said. “Even, on a night out, people come up to you and talk about that goal. “It’s a special thing. I think it’s because we went on from there to win a first Ulster title in 19 years, then won the All-Ireland the following year. “If Tyrone had won that game, we might have never have seen another Ulster title. “Football is funny like that. Some lads might have retired or whatever. The luck can go and you mightn’t get back to a final.” Donegal are back in a final, and Molloy feels they are facing their biggest challenge in the province since their breakthrough.
