League runners up Dungarvan came to Suir Crescent for the cup semi final and what a game it turned out to be.
Mooncoin came out of the blocks fast and had plenty of first half chances.
It was Emily Cooney who broke the deadlock with a great run through the middle and a powerful finish to match the run.
Dungarvan equalised shortly before half time to send them in all square at the break.
Both team pressed hard in the second half but it was Mooncoin who stuck first with 7 minutes to go.
A deflected strike from Aoibhe Rees saw us take the lead. A late scramble in the box with a couple of minutes to go saw Dungarvan equalise again and the game was brought to extra time.
A goal in each half saw Dungarvan win the game.
This was a fantastic performance from every girl on the pitch and on another day the game may have gone our way.
4-2 to Dungarvan was the final score after extra time.
Heartbreak for the Mooncoin girls but the future is bright for this young team.
