Speaking afterwards, Burns admitted the memories of those previous heartbreaks had entered Armagh minds when Monaghan staged a late comeback from seven points down.<\/p>\n
That kind of did creep into our mind at some point there.<\/p>\n
Fair play to Monaghan, they didn\u2019t roll over there.<\/p>\n
They kept harrying and they really made us earn it today.<\/p>\n
The game eventually swung Armagh\u2019s way in extra time, with Ois\u00edn O’Neill firing home a crucial goal while man of the match Ois\u00edn Conaty continued a sensational afternoon that saw him score 0-6 from play.<\/p>\n
Burns himself was forced off temporarily after suffering the facial injury but returned to help finish the job.<\/p>\n
Those things happen.<\/p>\n
Ois\u00edn O’Neill came on and sure Ois\u00edn does what Ois\u00edn does, he was brilliant there.<\/p>\n
Thankfully we finished the job then.<\/p>\n
But it was Burns\u2019 answer about his father afterwards that instantly became one of the moments of the day.<\/p>\n
Jarlath Burns captained Armagh to Ulster glory back in 1999 and, according to his son, had never let him forget that particular medal imbalance.<\/p>\n
I always told him that I had the All-Ireland.<\/p>\n
But he let me know about the Ulster there for years and years.<\/p>\n
So look, it\u2019s nice to have another Ulster medal in the house.<\/p>\n
For a family steeped in Armagh football, it was a fitting line after the county\u2019s first provincial triumph in almost two decades.<\/p>\n
