DONEGAL’S HOME QUARTER-FINAL in the Ulster SFC was confirmed today as a consequence of Fermanagh defeating Antrim in Enniskillen.
Tomas Corrigan kicked nine points in the win for Pete McGrath’s team, including two sideline balls. The Erne County were 0-9 to 0-2 in front at the break before winning out on a 1-12 to 0-9 scoreline.

It means now that Donegal will welcome Fermanagh on Sunday, June 12, to MacCumhaill Park in the Ulster SFC quarter-final. Rory Gallagher, a native of Belleek, will be taking on his own county for the first time as Donegal manager.
The winners of that tie will play Monaghan or Down in the semi-finals.
Meanwhile, Shaun Paul Barrett’s Donegal minors will be on the road for their Ulster Minor Football Championship quarter-final on Sunday, May 29, as Antrim overcame Fermanagh 4-10 to 2-9 today.
