Less than two minutes in, Ruairi Canavan netted from close range after Shaun Patton was unable to hold on to Darren McCurry’s long-range shot.
Tyrone were 1-3 to 0-1 ahead by the ninth minute, but Donegal did have spells when – had Canavan not raised that green flag – they might have made better inroads. The Kilcar man tapped over a 27th minute free to bring Donegal back to within two points, but Tyrone hit five of the last seven points in the opening half and were 1-10 to 0-8 ahead at the short whistle.
Patton was firmly in the limelight in the closing stages. First, a 50m free sailed all the way to the net, but a square ball infringement meant it was chalked off.
