Donegal minors enjoy facile win over Down

Donegal minor gaelic footballers have made it two wins out of two in the Ulster minor football championship following Sunday's facile 3-15 to 0-6 win over Down at Páirc Esler in Newry.

A blistering first half set the tone for this win as Donegal led by 2-13 to 0-2 by the interval and were well out of sight.

The Ulster Minor Championship has a different format this year with the nine counties divided into two groups:

Group A
Derry, Donegal, Down, Fermanagh and Monaghan

Group B
Antrim, Armagh, Cavan and holders Tyrone.
