Cregmore girls advance to national cup semi-final

The Galway girls overcame Birdhill FC by 2-0 in Cregmore on Sunday to advance to the semi-finals for the second year in succssion.

In strong wind conditions, it was nil-all at half time, but Cregmore took control of the second half. They were rewarded with two goals from Aoife Thompson and some super saves from goalkeeper Karen Connolly to see off the Tipperary side.
