Rory Gallagher said he was ‘very pleased’ with his Donegal side after tonight’s six-point success against Tyrone.

By Chris McNulty in Sean MacCumhaill Park

Donegal defeated the Red Hands 0-12 to 0-6 to go joint top of Division 1, alongside Tyrone and Dublin.

With two games to go, against Monaghan and Mayo, Donegal are in with a very real chance of making a League final.

“We’d be very pleased,” Gallagher told Donegal Daily.

“We came out and got some great scores and deserved a five-point lead at half-time. The second half developed into a hard-to-watch contest.

“I was very pleased with the attitude.

“You’re playing Tyrone, who are rated in the top three in the country and were the best team in Ulster last year.”
