Getting the match-ups right is vital to any game and Enda McGinley’s decision to put Eoghan McCabe on Sean Quigley paid dividends for Antrim on Saturday night in Brewster Park.
It has taken a while for the St Gall’s ace to break through on to the senior team and he took some time away from the Saffrons after initially joining Lenny Harbinson’s squad back in 2019.
While playing as a link man around the middle third for St Gall’s, McCabe has reinvented himself as a tough-tackling corner-back under McGinley’s tenure with Antrim.
