However, a 27th minute Dungloe goal was the first significant momentum switcher. Curran smashed high past Cian Randles in the Glenswilly goal after a fine move. Dungloe netminder Danny Rodgers had started it with a kick0out to David McCarron and he played the ball onto Ryan Greene, whose strong run and pass set up Curran to score.

Glenswilly would’ve wanted a swift response after the interval but a goal for Dungloe in just 15 seconds made it a seven-point game with Luke Neely shooting low past Randles after breaking from midfield.
That goal was part of a Dungloe surge that would see them score 1-4 in succession to kick on to 2-9 to 0-5 in front with Sean Wallace, McCarron, Greene and Luke Neely posting points.
