Galway manager Kevin Walsh is adamant that there is a 'big performance' in his side.

Following the manner of the defeat to Roscommon in the Connacht SFC final, Walsh has been tasked with the job of lifting morale in the squad ahead of tomorrow's All-Ireland qualifier against Donegal.

Walsh brings his charges to Markievicz Park in the hope that they can redeem themselves and prolong their interest in this year's championship.

And the Galway manager told the Connacht Tribune that the players must believe in themselves, if they are to have any chance against the Ulster side.

"It won't be easy - it never is after a defeat - but now we have to work hard and believe that we can come again and deliver a big performance," said Walsh.

"It's all about moving on and picking ourselves up and at least the chance has been given to us to bounce back. Getting our minds right for this match is the key factor, and all things considered, the mood has been good very good this week.

"Last year, after the Tipperary match, the feeling was completely different - our season was over. Now, we've been given a chance - it won't be an easy one  and while we would have hoped for a more central venue, the opportunity will be there for us to bounce back."
