Donegal 1-21
Down 3-21
Donegal exited the Ulster Senior Football Championship on Sunday afternoon, suffering a six-point defeat to Down at O’Donnell Park.
The visitors led this encounter by a single point at the interval, with Caolan McGonagle firing home a major for Donegal which left the scoreline reading 1-7-0-11.
The visitors extended their cushion to five points in the early stages of Act Two, helped by a well-taken goal from Daniel Guinness.
Donegal responded well and managed to level terms on 45 minutes, with Jason McGee landing a superb two-pointer during this spell.
However, the Mourne men concluded proceedings the stronger of the two teams and a brace of goals in the closing stages from Miceal Rooney saw them record a fine victory over the reigning Ulster champions.
