ST MICHAEL’S CAME good in the second half to see off Dungloe in the AllSportStore.com All-County Football League Division 1 in Dunfanaghy this evening.
St Michael’s 1-12 Dungloe 2-2
The home side were out of sorts and behind on the scoreboard in the first half, going in behind at the break, 1-2 to 1-1. However, Colm McFadden kicked four points from play and a free in the second half to see his team home.
Danny Rodgers opened with a free and then the Dungloe goalkeeper saved well from Andrew Kelly. Tony Boyle’s side went 1-1 to 0-0 up when Ryan Greene scored a penalty in the 15th minute.

But on 22 minutes Ryan Langan scored something of an unconventional goal – but a splendid one nonetheless when he slid to volley a Colm McFadden centre.
