Under 14 girls back on track.
Killala 8 Ballina Town 1
The under 14 girls are back in the race for the league title with an 8-1 win on home turf in Courthouse street. The Killala girls scored 8 goals against rivals Ballina town last Tuesday night. Within the first ten minutes Killala dominated possession on the field but poor finishing by the home side resulted in a struggle for the ball to reach the back of the net. With 30 minutes gone in the first half and after numerous chances, striker Aoileen Collins hit home to make the home side on top. Soon after the first, Aoileen got her second followed by a Ballina goal from a poorly cleared corner. With a half time score of 2-1, the Killala girls went back out in force and dominated the second half. While the home girls controlled a majority of the play, they goals started to build up, with another 4 goals from Collins accompanied by a strike from Jacinta Munnelly and another from Rachel Munnelly. The full time whistle blew with a deserved win for the home team.
Team: Emma Munnelly, Karen Lawlor, Megan Bilbow, Grainne McHale, Sarah Boyde, Rachel Munnelly, Jacinta Munnelly, Sharon Kileen, Chloe Greham, Aoileen Collins and Ailson Munnelly.
