DECLAN Bonner was willing to sacrifice a performance for points – but was delighted as Donegal got both against Monaghan.

Caolan Ward and Hugh McFadden hit the goals as Donegal eased to a 2-12 to 0-8 win at Fr Tierney Park

“We spoke about it before the match. Whatever about the performance, it was all about getting the two points and getting over the line.
