McGeehin strikes late to knock out Naomh Conaill

St Eunan’s 0-10 Naomh Conaill 0-9

A late added time point from Eoin McGeehin knocked reigning champions Naomh Conaill out of the Donegal championship as St Eunan’s advanced in MacCumhaill Park.

The Letterkenny men had a great first half and led 0-7 to 0-3 at the break thanks to a couple of points from Conor O’Donnell Jnr and Niall O’Donnell.

But Naomh Conaill hit back in the second half and hit the next five scores to go ahead for the first time in the 49th minute.

Darragh Mulgrew and Ciaran Thompson traded points and Ciaran Moore levelled the game with five to play plus added time.

And the next score was the final one of the game as McGeehin struck from the left in the 64th minute to decide the tie.
