Dublin vs Donegal was listed for Croke Park on Sunday at 1.15pm in Sam Maguire Cup Round 3. That fixture sat in a Sunday championship list that also carried other games, but this one was the early football meeting at the main venue named in the schedule.
Croke Park at 1.15pm
The timing is the clearest operational detail for readers: 1.15pm at Croke Park. Dublin and Donegal were the teams attached to the Round 3 slot, so anyone following that championship game had a fixed start time and a fixed venue before the day began.
RTE was listed alongside the fixture, placing the match inside the day’s televised championship slate. The listing itself did not add a scoreline or a finished result; it set the stage for the contest and identified when and where the game was meant to begin.
Sunday’s championship slate
The Dublin and Donegal match was not alone on the page. Cork v Offaly appeared in the All-Ireland SHC quarter-final at FBD Semple Stadium at 3.30pm, and Monaghan v Westmeath in Clones was listed for 4pm. Those later starts showed how the Sunday schedule was stacked across football and hurling, with the Round 3 Dublin v Donegal meeting opening the sequence among the named fixtures.
For readers tracking the day’s championship order, the useful point is simple: Dublin v Donegal was the first listed match in that set of fixtures, with the venue and time already pinned down. The source does not say the result of Dublin v Donegal or whether the match had been played yet.
