Milford United and Swilly Rovers win weekend fixtures in Donegal League

Milford United retained their league‑leading position with a 4‑1 victory over Drumoghill at The Moss on Saturday, despite very wet and windy conditions.

Jacob Campbell opened the scoring before half‑time and Ciaran Blaney added a second from a corner. In the second half Flynn Nash struck twice, securing the win, while Drumoghill’s Darren Coyle scored a late consolation in the 89th minute.

At Swilly Park, Swilly Rovers edged Letterbarrow Celtic 3‑2 in a five‑goal thriller. Ryan McFadden gave the hosts the lead on 36 minutes, but Rory Kennedy equalised early in the second half. A free‑kick from Wadi set up Ryan Moore’s second‑half winner, and Leon Boyce converted a penalty to make it 3‑1. Kennedy added a late goal, but Swilly held on for the points.

In the Green Brae, Lifford defeated Drumkeen 2‑0. James Connolly scored the opener after a pass from Lorcan Friel, and Shay Lyndsay added a second ten minutes from time following a through ball from Martin Mongan.
