Donegal recovered from a poor first half to run out comfortable winners against Carlow in Saturday's All-Ireland Football qualifier.
JJ Smith's goal helped Carlow lead by three points early on although Donegal levelled at 0-6 to 1-3 by half-time.
However, Rory Kavanagh hit a Donegal goal a minute after the break and Conall Dunne's 54th-minute strike increased the home team's lead.
Carlow's Mark Carpenter was sent off midway through the second half.
Michael Murphy hit eight points although Donegal shot some bad wides.
Donegal: P Durcan, F McGlynn, N McGee, K Lacey, B Dunnion, E McGee, M McGuire, C Toye, K Cassidy, R Kavanagh (capt), L McLoone, D Walsh, C Dunne, M Murphy, S Griffin.
