Naomh Conaill U21 manager Johnny McLoone was content with his side’s narrow win over Dungloe on Sunday.

Nathan Byrne’s late point sealed a 0-10 to 0-9 quarter-final win over their neighbours to book a spot in the semi-finals.

Naomh Conaill had to come from 0-8 to 0-4 behind to carve out the win.

“It was looking poor,” McLoone admitted to Donegal Daily/Donegal Sport Hub. 

“They’re a tough team and this is a hard place to come.

“We were down three players and the squad was stretched, but we’re happy to come out of it. The boys we were missing are big, physical lads, but we came through it well.

“I would have taken a one-point win all day.”
