Manager James Duignan has named his team for this evening’s Connacht minor football championship semi-final against Galway at Tuam Stadium (throw-in at 7 p.m.).
There are two changes to the team that defeated Sligo last time out, with Liam Finneran and Gordon Casey coming into the starting 15.
Shay McGuinness, who missed the Sligo game through injury, is named among the substitutes.
A win for Roscommon this evening will see them reach the Connacht final against Mayo in Dr. Hyde Park in a week’s time.
Roscommon won the group game between the teams by three points but Galway’s emphatic dismissal of Leitrim a week ago allowed the Tribesmen to edge out Sligo for a semi-final place and has given them confidence ahead of this evening’s game.
