Dublin v Armagh score recap as the Orchard County cause upset at Croke Park
The Orchard County retained their Division 1 status last season with a victory over Roscommon in a relegation playoff

Armagh have travelled to GAA HQ to take on Dublin today in the first game of the new season in the National Football League Division 1.

The Orchard County retained their Division 1 status last season with a victory over Roscommon in a relegation playoff.

Kieran McGeeney's side have been progressive in recent seasons but face formidable opposition this evening before they go on to play All-Ireland champions Tyrone next weekend.

McGeeney will pit his wits against his old club teammate Dessie Farrell, with the having lined out together for Na Fianna for a number of years.

Farrell's Dublin are fresh off winning the O'Byrne Cup and for the first time in a long time have a point to prove this season after relinquishing the All-Ireland crown in 2021.

Dublin are heavy favourites for this one but could the Orchard County cause an upset at Croke Park? The match is scheduled for a 7pm throw-in and will be shown live on RTE 2. It can also be streamed live for FREE from the RTE Player.
