Ulster champions Derry have become the first side into the semi-finals of the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship as they overcame Clare at Croke Park on Saturday afternoon.
The Oak Leafers took on the Munster county buoyed by their shock Anglo-Celt success when they defeated Donegal in the final and are now looking to take their success into their last-four place in the Sam Maguire race.
