Moville left Foden with two precious league points and the local bragging rights following Sunday's narrow win over neighbours and arch rivals Carndonagh. 

Carn 1-5 Moville 0-10

It was a third straight win for Moville in the league win and leaves them in pole position at the top of the Division 3 table. 

Given the local derby nature of the tie this was always going to be a hard fought and close and intense affair and  that is how it turned out. 

Moville enjoyed the better of the first half exchange and led by four points at half-time and they had extended that lead out to five points by the 50 minute mark. 

But it was game on again when Conor McLaugjlin scored the Carndonagh goal to reduce the Moville lead to two points.

Carn  pressed late on and reduced the margin to a single in the closing minutes to set up a grandstand finish before Padraic Skelly sealed the win with an injury time Moville point.
