However, Armagh improved and Andrew Murnin scored a goal as they hit 1-2 without reply.

Donegal struck the last three points of the first half and they were 1-5 to 0-7 down at half-time.

The away side were excellent in the first 15 minutes after the restart and scored three points on the trot.

Armagh had a purple patch after that and drew level before Oisin Gallen saw a penalty saved in the 65th minute.

Rian O’Neill and Shane O’Donnell swapped points in injury-time before Jarly Óg Burns missed a fisted chance to win the game for Armagh.

The match ended in a draw and Donegal are back in action next weekend when they host Louth.
