Sponsored by Mooncoin Pharmacy

A wet and windy evening awaited us on our trip to Evergreens Fantastic Facilities in Kilkenny for an u16 SFAI girls game .

It was the girls first game on Astro under light .

We started the game with gusto and made our intentions known from the beginning . Making some very good attacks from the first kick .

Evergreen Were just as eager and made their presence known , with Goal keeper Emily Blackmore called into action on a number of occasions

We drew first blood on the 15 minute mark when Molly Murphy cleared a ball that Sophie Scahill connected with , sending it in over the top where Aoibhe Rees had a shot in goal that was saved and sent to the left wing where an eager Ella Brennan wasted no time in slotting today the net .

Evergreen Equalised within a few minutes and added a second one on the 32 minute mark . We Clawed it back to level in the second half where some got team work between Aoibhe and Ella , resulted in Rees slitting to the net … we held our own for long periods of time , and Molly Murphy , Niamh Did very well in our defence . Saoirse Corcoran put in a fin effort before having to leave the pitch due to an injury .

In the final 15 , Evergreen Pulled away , leaving the final Score at 5-2
