The Donegal Schoolboys 2007s overcame the holders DDSL to win the Sligo Super Cup at the Showgrounds today.

An emotional Johnny McGroarty hailed his side after their penalty shoot-out win.

Donegal won 3-1 on spot kicks after a 1-1 draw, with Carragher Friel on target.

Connaghan netted in a 1-0 win over Derby County before Friel and Seaghan McCormick secured a 2-1 win against Aberdeen.
