Frank McGlynn has managed to drag Donegal back into their league encounter with Meath at MacCumhaill Park this afternoon.
Meath were not fancied to put it up to Donegal at all.
But one stage the visitors, with a slight breeze, looked like they were going to run away with it leading by 0-7 to 0-2.
Glenfin man McGlynn snatched an important goal to make it 1-3 to Meath’s 0-7 leaving just a point between the teams.
But Michael Newman hit back for Meath almost instantly to make it 1-3 to 1-7.
Donegal have managed to pull back a coupe of points including a huge effort from Michael Murphy to make it Donegal 1-5 Meath 1-7 at half-time.
There’s a large crowd here at MacCumhaill Park and Donegal will he happy with the scoreline going in at the break.
They must up their game in midfield however, if they are to keep up their 100% record in the league.
