While GAA pitches usually steal most of the headlines, this football grounds in Donegal is up there with the best of them.

Sportsfile have put together a stunning gallery of Rannagh Park in Arranmore, Donegal. Arranmore is an island just off the west coast of the county, with the photos being taken during the Donegal Junior League Glencar Inn Division One match between Arranmore United and Milford United Reserves yesterday.

You'll do well to find a better looking pitch than this one, although we imagine it would be a wild spot on a wet and windy day.

Arranmore United would run out 7-1 winners on this occasion. The island has a population of 469 people, which has been slowly declining since the 1990s when it was at over 600.
