Shane Callaghan points late as minors reach Ulster semi

The Donegal minors left it late to win a dramatic Ulster quarter-final against Cavan in Breffni Park.

A game of two halves, Donegal were 0-5 to 0-2 ahead in a slow first half, with Lorcan McGee getting two, while Finbar Roarty, Conor McCahill and Jack Hegarty got the rest.

Cavan then went into a dominant 2-7 to 0-7 lead with less than ten to go thanks to goals from Dylan Edwards and a Ben Tully free from 40 metres.

But an Oisin Scanlan goal, along with two points from Danny Brown, and a great score from Darragh Hennigan levelled the game in added time.

And Shane Callaghan fired over the vital point to give Donegal a 1-11 to 2-7 win as they advance to the semi-final.
