Darren McCarron praised the effort of his Kildrum Tigers Reserves as they overcame Milford United in the Saturday League Division 2 Shield final.
The Tigers came from behind at The Moss as goals from Gareth Colhoun, Michael Ayton and Ryan McCarron secured a 3-1 win.
“We went the hard way about it,” the Tigers boss told Donegal Daily/Donegal Sport Hub afterwards.
“We never started in the first half. The boys got going in the second half and did a real good job of it.
“For times in the first half we weren’t in the game, but we had a bit more bite about us in the second half.”
The win adds the Shield to the League title collected earlier in the season, meaning a double celebration for the St Johnston side.
McCarron said: “They all put the effort in and train. Most of these boys do the bench on Sunday, some of them start. They put a serious effort in all year.”
