Niall Hannigan scored one of the quickest hat-tricks in Donegal football yesterday – taking less than eight minutes to bag a treble as St Eunan’s won the U21 final.
“I was shocked myself,” Hannigan said after a 5-11 to 1-8 win.
“That doesn’t happen too often. There was great work by Rory Carr and Oisin Purdy so it was just a matter of putting them into the net.I’m delighted with how it went.”
Hannigan revealed how practice has made for perfect in the manner of the goals.
He said:“It’s something we’ve been doing over the years was playing it to a man in a better position and making an easy finish.
“We do it all the time in training and it was great to show it on a big stage like a final.”
