U13 Girls Division 1: LB Rovers 1 - Ballyhar 3

On the grass pitch in Ballyduff the Ballyhar U13 girls travelled in good numbers for their Division 1clash with LB Rovers.


In a tight game Ballyhar got off to a good start as they pressed the home defence. This pressure paid off as Anna Kate Daly fired home from a Niamh O'Sullivan corner on 11mins. Ballyhar continued to press and when they got a free kick halfway inside the LB Rovers half, the long range shot from Niamh O'Sullivan hit that back of the net when the keeper misjudged the bounce of the ball. H/T 0-2 Ballyhar

Following the halftime break LB Rovers began to get a foothold in the game and were pushing for a goal and despite the defensive work of Emma O'Callaghan, Anna Fitzgerald and Aoibhinn Daly they made the breakthrough to pull it back to 1-2.
Fortunately for Ballyhar almost immediately after that, a mix up between the LB Keeper  and defender  led to an unfortunate OG making it 1-3 to the Ballyhar girls. This was enough to see the game out and a well earned 3 points for Ballyhar.
