Level again, Andy Moran points what was apparently a good goal chance

Ciaran Bonner stretchered off after lengthy treatment. Took a hard hit from a Mayo player.

Adrian Sweeney on.

We lost Neil Gallagher a few minutes ago as well with a head cut.

I thought Mayo had us when they got level in the last ten minutes. Maybe the injury to Ciaran Bonner came at a bad time for them. It took three fabulous points from the subs to finish it off in the last few minutes.

Great to win, and a big confidence booster ahead of the Championship. Hopefully they'll be allowed a night out without it making international headlines!

Plenty to work on still. Mayo had the better of the midfield, while we gave away a rake of scoreable frees in our left corner. However, in previous years, Donegal would have folded when Mayo came back. It may be only the league, but its very nice to finally win it!

Congratulations to Donegal on winning the Division 1 National League title. A hard hitting and entertaining game of football. Getting worried now for the Ulster Championship.

And yet another long drive home for the mayo faithful, the only thing is they have plentyy of practice!!
