AS THE Ulster Ladies semi-final headed for extra-time, Donegal star Geraldine McLaughlin says there was no way her side was going to lose.

Donegal had to haul themselves back from the brink to force extra time against Cavan at Killyclogher last night.

But they did just that, eating into a five-point deficit before McLaughlin turned on the style in extra time.

The Termon woman kicked seven points in the extra period and hit 14 in all to fire Donegal into the Ulster final.

“We knew when we went in for extra time that we were going to win it,” McLaughlin told Donegal Daily/Donegal Sport Hub.

“There was no losing in that changing room.

“You make your own luck. Hard work makes luck. We knew we had them and we knew we would get the scores. The fighting spirit of this team is unreal.

“This team won’t stop the whole way through.”
