Declan Bonner will lead a Donegal Minor team into their first ever All-Ireland final on September 21.
And Bonner was keen to praise Ethan O’Donnell whose point secured victory over Dublin.
Donegal were two points down and kicking into Hill 16 but three points without reply, including the 59th minute winner from sub O’Donnell, secured victory.
“Ethan has been outstanding for us whenever he’s come off the bench, you need that type of quality to turn games,” said Declan.
“I’m absolutely delighted for the lads because I think back in my playing days, I lost an All-Ireland semi-final here in 1990 against Meath and there’s nothing worse than losing a semi-final.
“We’ll be back now in three weeks’ time and we know Kerry are red-hot favourites but we’ll definitely be coming to win an All-Ireland minor final.”
