Cracking game of football.. !
Bride Rovers 3-11 Fermoy 0-18
On Monday night last in St.Colmans College pitches, the Senior Ladies Footballers of Bride Rovers & Fermoy played out a cracking game of football.
Credit to both teams for the skill shown on the night with some excellent scores, heroic defending and super saves by both keepers.
The Rovers were first to score with a point from Grace Culloty, Fermoy responded with two points of their own. Grace Culloty added a second to level matters.
The Rovers defensive unit of Evelyn Collins, Michelle Hartnett, Niamh Barry, Aoife O Riordan, Trish O'Sullivan and captain Laura Quirke were playing very well & working hard for each other. They were well supported by Eleanor & Grace in midfield.
With Fermoy 2 points in front Grace Culloty struck for a goal to put the Rovers in front. Further points from Katie Quirke, Grace Culloty & Grace Kearney extended our lead. On the stroke of half time we got a great boost when Katie Quirke was quickest onto a breaking ball setup by Jessica O'Riordan to grab the Rovers second goal.
At half time we led 2-07 to 0-08.
As expected Fermoy came at us in the second half, a fast counter attack involving Jen Cahill & Elaine Culloty ended with a great point from Katie Quirke. The game ebbed & flowed as both sets of attackers notched up some fine scores. Jen Barry, Jen Cahill & Grace Culloty added on more points for the Rovers. With the Rovers lead reduced to 2 points Grace Culloty struck for that all important goal to seal the win. Well done to both teams on a fine game of football.
Team: C.Vaughan, M.Hartnett, E.Collins, N.Barry, A.O'Riordan, T.O'Sullivan, L.Quirke, E.Ahern, G.Kearney, J.Barry, G.Culloty, J.Cahill, E.Culloty, K.Quirke, J.O'Riordan. Sub used C.Hogan.
