Malin 2-9 Naomh Columba 3-14

Naomh Columba are the Donegal Intermediate champions as they proved too strong for Malin at O’Donnell Park this evening.

Brendan Doherty’s Naomh Columba were much the better team in the first half and Paddy Byrne’s goal helped them into a 1-9 to 0-4 lead at half-time.

Philip Doherty rattled in a second goal in the 34th minute.

Malin did try to rally and Ciaran O’Kane scored a goal for Malin and they got back to within six points.

However, Daniel Mullarkey was then sent off before Aaron Doherty drilled home a penalty.

Ciaran O’Kane netted a late consolation score but it wasn’t enough as Naomh Columba collected the Cathal McLaughlin Cup.
