TONY MCNAMEE PRAISED his patched-up Swilly Rovers side for making Letterkenny Rovers battle for advancement in the FAI Youth Cup on Saturday.

While Letterkenny ran out 4-0 winners in the end, McNamee’s side – missing seven regulars for varying reasons – kept the home side scoerless for an hour before conceding four.

“They battled well,” McNamee said.
