The Donegal Masters have been drawn to face Mayo in the All-Ireland Masters semi-final.

The semi-finals are pencilled in to take place on Saturday, October 21, with the venue yet to be confirmed.

Val Murray’s team finished joint top of the Masters table with Sligo. A draw with Sligo was the only blot on the copybook while they rounded off the group last Wednesday with a fine 2-16 to 3-6 win over Antrim at Garvaghy.

Michael ‘Sticky’ Ward and Dermot McColgan were the Donegal goalscorers last week.

Last year, Donegal won the Shield competition, beating Offaly 0-13 to 0-10 in the final, but are aiming for the top prize this time around.

Paul McGonigle, recently appointed as Declan Bonner’s assistant manager with the Donegal senior team, is among the key players with the likes of former Donegal players John Haran and Brian McLaughlin also on the squad.
