An Clochán Liath had not played in any final in recent decades. The score at half-time was four points a piece. In the second half, an effort by
Niall O'Donnell of St Eunan's rebounded off the post and Conor O'Donnell Jnr was there to hit the ball into the back of the net for what proved to be the game's opening goal. An Clochán Liath then received the benefit of a controversial penalty decision, which resulted in
Shaun Patton's concession of the game's second goal. St Eunan's – the more experienced team though – ultimately won this decider, with
Ciarán Moore, Eoin McGeehin and O'Donnell Jnr adding on scores towards the end. In doing so, the club secured a 16th SFC title to once again move ahead of Gaoth Dobhair, left trailing on 15. An Clochán Liath followed Glenswilly in losing an SFC final two years after winning the
Donegal Intermediate Football Championship. ==Ulster Senior Club Football Championship==
