Pretty turgid stuff from both teams, with the difference being Michael Murphy. We didn't play well, but somehow still found ourselves in the game. Our discipline was very poor and our tackling let us down, which got Donegal some easy scores. I have no idea what the two red cards were for. There was nothing that either player did which deserved it. Stephen Sheridan on the other hand should have been sent off. That stamp on Gallagher's ankle was disgraceful and I'd say he'll be in trouble this week.
There was no cohesion in our play tonight, with the awful weather conditions having a major say in that. Donegal's running game better suited the conditions. It was always going to be tough playing away tonight and any result would have been a bonus. I thought Grimley played well again and Rian O'Neill is developing well. Stefan Campbell looked like he injured his hamstring, which is worrying with the games coming up.
