Waterford’s shooting was poor in the second half and Donegal never looked in any great trouble with Amy Boyle Carr scoring a super goal.
Geraldine McLaughlin was a surprising late inclusion on the team sheet and she came on in the 54th minute for the injured Niamh McLaughlin.
The win leaves Donegal in a strong place in the group, and they take on All-Ireland champions, Meath in two weeks’ time.
