The action resumes at MacCumhaill Park. Can Antrim stay in this game?

Ex-Antrim footballer
Quote MessageAntrim have got to maintain their composure and stick together as a team and keep using the game plan which worked well for them in the first half. If they can do that, get a goal on the board, this game could be far from over.
Brendan Devenney
Former Donegal forward
Quote MessageIf I was in the Antrim dressing-room, I would be absolutely gutted to be five down at half-time. They have really done their homework and their plan has troubled Donegal, who just seemed to think they could come out and play without much of a plan and blow Antrim away.

Adrian:Some finish that from Jamie Brennan for the Donegal goal and a super point just after.
Ryan Ferry: Good goal from Jamie Brennan, but it hasn't been too impressive.
Donegal lead by five at half-time. The scoreline is not reflective of the play after Antrim missed a couple of glorious goal chances.
Fitzpatrick's eventful week continues as he is carried off with an apparent leg injury. That's a real shame, as his goal chance apart, he has done very well in the first half. Kevin O'Boyle has come on.
Goalscorer Brennan kicks another fine point for Donegal. Suddenly the home side are five ahead. The Antrim bench were up on their feet as Fitzpatrick seemed certain to hit the net. But heads were very quickly in hands as the centre half-forward pulled his shot wide.
After the much-mentioned Matt Fitzpatrick misses an absolute sitter Antrim goal chance, the Saffrons are punished at the other end as Jamie Brennan fires into the net. That 45 seconds could prove the key period of the match.
Jamie Brennan celebrates after scoring Donegal's opening goal.
McGourty regroups brilliantly from missing the goal chance as he strokes over a lovely free from about 38 metres.
After his couple of early wides, Hugh McFadden finds his range with a towering point. Donegal two up but it's not a fair reflection of the play thus far. Antrim's tactics working well. McGourty and McCann getting plenty of opportunities to run at the Donegal defence.

Quote MessageDonegal are not playing to their potential so far.
McGourty hits goal chance wide
CJ McGourty has the first real goal chance of the game but he pulls the opportunity wide of Mark Anthony McGinley's goal.
Thompson on form for Donegal
Ciaran Thompson kicks his fourth point of the opening 15 minutes to increase Donegal's lead before Stephen Beatty replies. Midfielder Beatty has been excellent so far for Antrim.
Ciaran Thompson has kicked four of Donegal's early points
After CJ McGourty restores Antrim's lead from a free, Ciaran Thompson responds in kind before he then kicks Donegal ahead from play after a poor kickout.

Murphy cuts Antrim's lead to the minimum and Ciaran Thompson then levels from another free. Antrim's only negative so far is that they are conceding soft frees.
Michael Murphy points a response for Donegal from a 40-metre free but Tomas McCann immediately floats another Saffron point from play. The Antrim attack getting plenty of space early on. Ten minutes gone.
Donegal 0-0 0-2 Antrim
Donegal have a goal chance after late call-up Cian Mulligan's run but over-prevarication sees the opportunity wasted and Antrim stride upfield to score a second point with Tomas McCann firing over from play.
