Marksman: How the Donegal players fared against Derry in Ballyshannon

In a very exciting contest Donegal's whirlwind finish saw them through with three points to spare but they can thank the introduction of Michael Murphy for the inspiration as well as a good day at the office for Ciaran Thompson and Dáire Ó Baoill

On a perfect day for football and in front of almost 7,000 spectators, Donegal treated their large support to a thrilling finish, hitting 1-7 without reply in the final 12 minutes.

As a result Marksman was very impressed, especially with the scoring forwards who were helped by the introduction of Michael Murphy at half-time.
