Ulster LGFA Junior Championship
Antrim 4-21 London 1-06
Antrim senior ladies progressed to the ulster junior football final with this comprehensive 24 point victory over London…
The girls showed intent from the first whistle and with one minute on the clock Maria O Neill had the ball in the London net …
Antrim were full of energy and some of the football they were playing was absolutely fantastic…
Midway through the first half the impressive Lara Dahunsi hit a two pointer and this was followed by another Maria O’Neill goal and some excellent point taking from the boot of Caitlin Taggart who was proving a handful for the London rear guard …
Aileen Mc Donnell also rattled over two great scores and after a brilliant passage of play Theresa Mellon raised another white flag…
The second half followed a similar pattern to the first with Antrim dictating proceedings and after an eye catching move Ciara Brown finished to the net..
Aisling Mulholland and Emily Kearns were making some great interceptions at the back and indeed the two girls combined well to set up Ciara Maguire who split the posts and Alssya Davison then raised another white flag with Laura Agnew also getting her name on the score sheet…
Antrims last score was an absolute sublime two pointer from inspirational captain Bronagh Devlin who lead by example for the full 60 minutes…
Every girl can be so proud of their preformance in this game and the football that Antrim played was nothing short of exceptional at times …
Antrim now play Derry in the ulster final …
The game will be played at Brewster Park on Saturday 16 May with a 1 pm throw in…
Would be great for these girls to have a big support on the day ..
