Bohs came to Suir Crescent Sunday and a right battle took place. It was end to end from start to finish with Bohs marginally coming out on top.
A strike from the edge of the box crept in to give Bohs the lead mid way through the first half. A super strike from distance from Ellie Thompson levelled the score after the break.
A great run and clean strike late on sealed the points for Bohs. The result didn’t reflect the battle on the field when a draw may have been fairer.
Well done to Waterford Schoolgirls U12 Development squad who put in a fantastic performance in Mayfield this evening against Cork Schoolgirls.
Our own U12 number one Hannah Dobbyn played the second half and done extremely well in normal time before saving a penalty in the shootout that Waterford won 3-1.
A quick start saw the lads go one up early on through a tidy Jamie Moore finish from just outside the box after good work by Sean Grace and Kieran Fagan.
With the midfield three of Adam Cunningham, Kevin Conneely and Joey O’Hanlon on top, the pressure was telling with a few corners nearly resulting in a second before Kevin Law nodded home one of Adam Cunningham’s inswingers on 35 minutes to put a little bit of daylight between the two teams.
The second half saw Piltown get back in to the game on the hour mark but that was as good as it got with Kieran Fagan heading home our third from a Sean Grace corner.
This mornings road trip took our u17 Girls team in Rainy cappaquinn .
We didn’t create too many chances in the first half , but our solid defence of Sophie Scahill , Ciara O Keeffe and Eimear Quinn made sure that Cappaquinn didn’t create anything at the other end either .
The introduction of Ella Brennan on the 25 minute mark turned the game on its head and changed the dynamic of the Mooncoin play .
Some stern words and straight talking at half time took immediate effect , a Sarah Walsh through ball after less than a minute in the second half was run onto by Emily Blackmore who steadied herself before shooting home .
Within two minutes the same duo struck again when Emily Lined up for Sarah , who finished to the net …..
Sommer Grant saw two chances go marginally wide as the Mooncoin girls begin to dominate the mid field .
On the 55 minute Mark Mooncoin struck again when a well worked Ella Brennan cross from the corner of the pitch was taken down by Emily who side stepped a defender before shooting to the top right corner .
The fourth of the day came after Ella Brennan found herself on the receiving end of a pass front of goal and she made no mistake in slotting the ball to the back of the net .
Todays game was our third win from three in this league .
Our next fixture is a Munster Cup game in two weeks.
Big well done to all 7 of our girls involved with Waterford Schoolgirls over the weekend in Gaynor Cup fixtures.
