Arrangements set for Donegal’s Division 2 final against Meath

Donegal will face Meath at Croke Park next weekend in the Allianz Football League Division Two final.

A comfortable 1-20 to 0-10 win over Kildare at Fr Tierney Park today saw Donegal clinch promotion – and with it a place in the Division Two decider.

Next Saturday at 5pm, Donegal and Meath will cross swords at Croke Park in the final. The game will be preceded by the Division Four final between Derry and Leitrim at 3pm.

Donegal won Division Two in 2011, when they beat Laois in the final, while they lost to Monaghan in the 2014 Division Two decider.  In each of those two years, Donegal went on to win the Ulster SFC.

“It’s all building momentum for the Championship,” Donegal manager Declan Bonner said after today’s win.

Donegal laid the platform in the first half and led by 12 points at the break before Jamie Brennan’s goal took them out of sight.

Last month, Donegal defeated Meath 1-13 to 0-14 in Ballybofey, where Caolan McGonagle’s goal made all the difference.
