BBC Radio Ulster's presenter Austin O'Callaghan gets the views of former Donegal star Brendan Devenney at a sun-splashed Clones.
After being 0-4 to 0-0 down early on, Donegal fight back to beat Derry 2-10 to 1-11 in the Ulster Minor Football final curtain-raiser at Clones.
JD Boyle's goal helped Donegal lead 1-4 to 0-5 at half-time with Nathan Boyle's three-pointer extending their advantage midway through the second half.
Caolan Devlin's injury-time goal came too late for the Oak Leafers as he finished with a 1-7 tally for the beaten side.
Derry's youngsters remain in the championship despite their defeat as they now plot their backdoor campaign.
So are we going to have a changing of the guard in Ulster with Tyrone winning their first provincial title in six years or will Donegal in De Gaulle-like fashion deliver an emphatic 'non'?
Not for the first time, obituaries for this Donegal team were being penned as they lost their final five league games in the Spring.
A few of us thought Fermanagh might surprise the Tirconnail men in the Ulster quarter-finals but Donegal delivered a big second half to see off Pete McGrath's side and Rory Gallagher's men were the better team in both games against Monaghan.
Apart from some sloppy defending in their drawn semi-final against Cavan, Tyrone's displays in this province thus far have been ominously impressive. First season man Niall Sludden has been a stand-out performer and many pundits feel that the Red Hands are the only Ulster team equipped to truly trouble Dublin or Kerry come the business end of the championship later on.
But Donegal will love that kind of talk.
