Eoin McEvoy – Derry

The Derry centre-back produced a sensational display in their Allianz Football League Division 1 victory over Dublin on Sunday. Defensively solid, he also scored a remarkable 2-2 from centre-back and both goals were spectacular.

Sam McCartan – Westmeath

Westmeath manager Dessie Dolan hailed Sam McCartan’s performance in their Allianz Football League Division 3 Final victory over Down as “one of the best performances that a Westmeath man gave in Croke Park”. The defender scored four points and also assisted a goal.

Ciarán Thompson – Donegal

On his 100th senior appearance for Donegal, team captain Ciarán Thompson produced a man of the match display in Sunday’s Allianz Football League Division 2 Final. He scored four points, three of them from play, and was consistently influential when in possession.

Players of the Week are decided based on votes cast by followers of the Official GAA Instagram page.
