Aodh Ruadh Ballyshannon suffered their first senior championship defeat of 2021 on Sunday as they were outplayed by St Eunan’s (pictured) in Letterkenny on a final scoreline of 2-14 to 0-7.
Barry Ward’s side are still in contention for a quarter-final place – but are likely to need a victory against Ardara in their final group game to be sure of a place in the knockout stages.
Earlier in the day, Gweedore beat Glenfin by 1-14 to 1-4, holders Naomh Conaill enjoyed a 1-20 to 0-6 success over Termon, while Killybegs held on for a 1-9 to 1-8 win against Milford in Fintra.
