Senior Girls Soccer
On 28th of February our senior girls soccer team made the long journey to Greystones to play Saint David’s of Greystones.
The game kicked off at 11.30pm. It was a great start by both teams but we got a lot of great opportunities from Amy Carson-Hogan , Amber de Lewis but unfortunately the Saint David’s goalkeeper prevented them from hitting the back of the net.
The pressure continued from Mya Steele as she struck a shot but it clatters off the crossbar. The free kick won by Amber de Lewis ended up going out for a corner taken by Ella Carey and it ended up falling to Kayleigh Delaney as she kicked and scored a great goal after 22 minutes into the first half.
Great defending by Áine Dooley and Sheoladh Cunningham-Dynan saw us out until the end of the first half finishing at 12.07pm.
Coláiste Phobal started strong in the second half with a great chance after 7 minutes and soon after Lucy Moloney was replaced by Aoife Moore. Ella won a free, puts it into the box and Amber flicked it over the keepers head into the back of the net to put Coláiste into the lead by 2 goals to 0.
We then made our second change with Leah Harney coming on for Amy Carson-Hogan. Great pressure continued by our forward line and then a great goal from Ella Carey from outside the box after 15 minutes made it 3-0 in the second half.
Great play by Mya put the ball across the box and then Laura scored a great goal in the 20th minute to make it 4-0 in the second half. We made another change with Mya Steele coming off for Lucy Hogan. More great pressure by Laura and she scored her second goal of the game to put us 5-0 up in the 36th minute. Final score was 5-0 and a great performance by all.
Well done girls.
