Donegal 2nds 9 — 5 Letterkenny 2nds
\nCLICK HERE<\/a> for the shotsssssssssssssssssssss
\nOn a very wet and very cold day down at the Holmes, Donegal 2nds got their second win in a row with a hard fought win against local rivals Letterkenny.. The conditions were very tough for both sides but Donegal controlled most of the first half and lead at half time 6-0 thanks to 2 penalties from David Murrey.. Donegals forwards were playing really well as a unit and were in control of scrums and lineouts, and were putting Letterkennys defences under real pressure with great driving. Paul O donnell playing his first senior game, David Morrow and Michael Boyle were to the fore off some great work and from these advances Donegal got their penalties.. Even with the windy weather donegal backs tried to move the ball and Adrain Herarty and Gary mcGinty made good ground several times..Letterkenny made a couple of breaks but Donegal made the tackles..The hard work on the training ground with tackling is really paying off.. The second half Donegal once again got control of the game and were unlucky not to score a try that their play deserved. Letterkenny were kicking now but Hugh Morrow was catching and running straight back at them with interest.. With 15 min to go Donegals backs first brought the ball forward then the forwards picked and drove to within 5 meters and got a penalty which David converted to lead 9-0.. Letterkenny probably had the better off the remainder of the game but Donegal defended well until the last play of the game. Letterkennys prop forward crashed into the corner to score, but with the conversion sailing wide the ref blew his whistle for full time to great delight of the Donegal Town boys.. The whole team played very well and confidence will be good for next Saturdays quarter final Bulter sheild game against Strabane..
\nMan of the match: Shane Mahon. His 3rd senior game and he was every where.. He tackled,, he carried the ball, he was awesome….<\/p>\n
