Watch: Overnight flooding leaves Donegal GAA pitch submerged

ONE south Donegal football pitch has felt the brunt of Storm Lorenzo.

It comes just a few weeks after Davy Brennan Memorial Park in Glenties, was left under a covering of water.

Kilcar are set to face Gaoth Dobhair in one of the 2019 Donegal SFC semi-finals in Ballybofey on Sunday.

South Donegal was hit by overnight flooding.
