Senior Football: Our Senior Footballers traveled to Termon on Sunday afternoon and we’re unfortunately to only come away with a draw. Buncrana started brightly and went into a three points to one lead after ten minutes. Darach O’Connor, Ryan Currran and Garbhan Friel were particularly lively inside, winning plenty of possession from good passes from Odhran Doherty, Patrick McMyler and Kevin O’Loughlin. Termon responded to create a goal chance, however Noel O’Donnell pulled off a great save to deny the home side. Unfortunately Noel was unable to deny them a second time just before halftime, which meant the sides went in level at halftime. HT Termon 1-2 Buncrana 0-5. Termon came out fighting early in the second half and began to cause problems for the Buncrana defence, registering an early point. However the introduction of Paul McGonigle at full proved crucial for Buncrana, with McGonigle registering three scores from distance to swing the game in Buncrana’s favour. This was followed by a great score wide on the left hand side by Garbhan Friel to give Buncrana a three point lead with minutes remaining. Unfortunately an error by Oisin Doherty lead to a penalty for Termon which was duly converted, resulting in a draw. Buncrana must now focus on their final league game of the season, which will be versus Termon again, on the weekend of 1st/2nd December at the Scarvey.
