LATE SCORES FROM substitute Jamie Brennan and Conor O’Donnell got Donegal over the winning line in their rescheduled Division 1 game in Killarney. The visitors backed up last week’s win over Dublin with another decent showing against a Kerry team that couldn’t conjure a late steal as they did away to Derry six days ago.
Donegal lost Michael Langan to an early injury, to be replaced by Paddy McBrearty just before Ryan McHugh landed a two-point score for the visitors. McBreaty converted a two-point free as Donegal were always able to keep ahead on the scoreboard, and late points from Ryan McHugh, Eoghan Ban Gallagher and Oisin Gallen had Donegal 0-11 to 0-7 ahead at half time.
We didn’t quite get the grandstand finish like Celtic the previous weekend, but O’Connor’s goal, slapping in Paudie Clifford’s cross, in the 62nd minute made it 1-16 to 0-20, and Donegal something to think about. The response was those late scores from Brennan and O’Donnell for the win. Kerry: Shane Ryan, Damien Bourke, Jason Foley, Tom O’Sullivan, Graham O’Sullivan, Tadhg Morley, Sean O’Brien, Diarmuid O’Connor, Barry Dan O’Sullivan, Paudie Clifford, Sean O’Shea, Cillian Trant, Conor Geaney, Donal O’Sullivan, Dylan Geaney.
