U17 Girls Cup Final: Park Rangers 3 – 2 Mooncoin Celtic

Mooncoin Kindly Sponsored by TD tiling .

A valiant and ferocious effort put in by this Young Mooncoin team this evening in sunny Tramore.

The work Rate across the board tonight was testimony to the girls and how far they have come . They left every ounce of themselves on the pitch.

We took the lead twice through Sommer Grant , once in the first half and again in the second half . But alas it was not to be , as Park Rangers equalised and nipped the winner with 10 minutes left on the Clock.

Stand out performances in the Mooncoin Jersey tonight were Ciara O Keeffe , Sommer Grant and Niamh Reddy .

Tonight’s game brings the curtains down on what has been a fantastic season for these young ladies .

Ladies League: Benfica 5 – 0 Mooncoin Celtic

A slick looking Benfica team with a wealth of experience took on our new ladies team on the back pitch in the RSC on what was a very hot evening. From the off, our young ladies were pinned back but restricted Benfica to long range shooting and held out until the half hour mark when a dodgy offside was ignored to see Benfica 1 up. The girls settled and battled gamely and went in 1 down at half time.

The second half saw a similar pattern with a couple of early goals coupled with some tired legs of our own, eventually saw Benfica win 5-0.


A baptism of fire for a very young side who finished the game with all girls under the age of 20. They stuck to the game plan of frustrating Benfica and with games coming thick and fast, they will learn very quickly to adapt to the quicker games. Well done ladies, young and old. Big thanks to the large crowd who popped in to support too.
