It was 2007 since Donegal last won [the league].<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;It was a great performance as we had a very good second half that saw us through.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Making up for last year&#8217;s All-Ireland defeat by Kerry: &#8220;We probably had the fire in the belly after that All-Ireland performance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;We&#8217;re happy with the league in general.
