Allianz FL Division 1: Armagh 0-13 Donegal 0-10 

ARMAGH produced a storming finish to see off a dogged Donegal side at the BOX-IT Athletic Grounds last night to keep their hopes of retaining their slot in the top bracket of the Allianz Football League alive.  In a pulsating encounter in which no quarter was asked or given, the home team dug deep into their reserves of stamina and commitment to pocket two precious late points.
