Donegal claimed their second National Football League Division One title with a 3-20 to 2-10 victory over Kerry at Croke Park. The 13-point margin underscored Ulster’s dominance, though the match lacked intensity, with the 35,701-strong crowd hearing near-silent whispers until Donegal’s relentless second-half surge. Kerry’s early missed chances—Dylan Clifford’s two-point effort saved by Peadar Mogan’s diving stop and Joe O’Connor’s goal disallowed—set the tone.
Donegal retaliated with a 10-score burst, including Keith Evans’ opening goal, sealing a 0-13 to 1-2 halftime lead.
