Match 1 – Carlow & District 4 – 2 Limerick & District.
This opening game of this prestigious tournament pitted Carlow versus Limerick & District in the great grounds of Limerick University, on a hot and really sunny afternoon, but thankfully with a slight cooling breeze.
First Half.
Limerick started off the better and put Carlow under lots of pressure, but the ball was eventually cleared, but Carlow had their hearts in their mouths in the opening exchanges.
Carlow still hadn’t fully settled and Limerick were well ‘on song’ , with some really good interplay and were dominating possession, with Aoife Grant – Limerick’s main striker really prominent.
Following a good attack by Carlow – Kayla Downes – Limerick’s keeper only partially cleared the ball and Eimear Bolger claimed possession and she lofted the ball back over Kayla’s head and into the net from 30 yards out for Carlow to take a slender, but vital 1 - 0 lead on six minutes.
Then just a couple of minutes later, a long ball out of Carlow’s defence put Ciara Milton through and she beat a defender and slotted home to double their lead to 2 – 0 and at this stage Carlow were coasting.
Limerick were fighting hard to get back into the game and they won a couple of corners that Carlow defended well.
Limerick’s Eva Loftus went on a good run and she won another corner that was taken by Leah Hannon – Carlow only partially cleared the ball and the ball was picked up by Alexandra Sheehy who fired into Carlow’s net from all of 25 yards to make the score 2 – 1 on 12 minutes.
In light of the very hot conditions, Water Breaks were allowed every quarter.
Carlow’s Eimear Bolger picked up a loose ball and shot just over from 20 yards and at this stage of the proceedings – it was pretty much end to end stuff.
Carlow’s Cara English found Ciara Milton who beat a defender and shot, but it was far too high.
Limerick’s Madison Mcguane was very prominent in midfield and every ball into Carlow’s penalty area was looking dangerous and on one occasion, Tori Byrne -Lynch put in a shot that rolled agonisingly towards the goal, but it gently hit the post and was cleared by Abby Kepple – Carlow’s keeper, with Carlow breathing a high sigh of relief.
Just after this – the Referee blew the whistle for half-time with Carlow hanging on to their 2 – 1 lead.
Second Half.
Limerick won a couple of free kicks but they came to naught ad Eva Loftus shot just over the bar and then almost immediately – Ashlee Smith went on one of her mazy runs, but her cross was blocked and cleared by Limerick’s defence.
After another water break – Carlow’s Cara English sent a long clearance out of defence and the ever vigilant Ciara Milton latched on to it and slotted the ball home on 45 minutes to make the score 3-1 to make her brace.
Just two minutes later – Madison Mcguane picked up a loose ball at the edge of Carlow’s area and her mis-hit shot went through Nicole Osborne’s legs and dribbled into the net to make the score 3 -2 and bringing Limerick back into the game.
Then both sides had good runs/crosses, but there was nobody in the centre to convert what were gilt-edged chances, so they went a begging.
Carlow were awarded a free kick 40 yards out and Ciara Milton stepped up to try her luck and she it beautifully and it went over Kayla Downes and into the net on 60 minutes to make the score 4-2 and completing her hat-trick at the same time.
There was time for more action when Ashlee Smith had a shot which fell to Ciara Milton, who curled in a shot, which hit the bar and was cleared and just after the whistle came for full time, with a win for Carlow.
Best for Limerick were Eva Lofhus, Leah Hannon, Mya Moloney and Madison Mcguane, whilst standing out for Carlow were Eimear Bolger, Cara English, Hanna Kerfah and Man of the Match and hat – trick heroine – Ciara Milton.

MGL’s Niamh Niland picked up loose ball at the edge of Carlow’s penalty area and she shot but it went wide.

MGL won a free kick which was taken by Lara Dallaghan 35 yards out, but she overhit it and it was a goal-kick to Carlow.
Just before half-time there was a spell of good interplay between Laura Malone, Ciara Milton and Lucie O’Reilly, but their move came to nought.

A good run and cross by Ciara Killeen was caught by Carla Byrne who cleared the ball down the field.

A shot by Ciara Killeen was initially fumbled by Carla Byrne, but she managed to recover the loose ball and then cleared her lines.
Then it was disaster for Carlow – a through ball was mis-kicked and Robyn Loughran only had to shoot into an empty net to equalise on 44 minutes – so it was 1-1 with little time to go and everything to play for.

Carlow were awarded a free kick just outside the MGL penalty area and Ciara Milton took it and it went just over the bar.
There was more strong defensive work by Cara English and Keelie Doyle that kept MGL at bay,

It was end to end stuff between the two teams and nobody could take their eyes of this thrilling game, in case you missed a key part of play.
The final whistle went and it was straight into Carlow’s second Penalty Shoot Out.
Carlow were up first and Ciara Milton scored and MGL also scored, Ashlee Smith scored the second and MGL missed theirs, Keelie Doyle scored hers and MGL scored their’s to make it 3 – 2 to Carlow.
Siobhan Sinnott scored her’s and MGL scored their’s ro make it 4 -3 and Eimear Bolger scored her’s to make it 5 – 3 and that meant that MGL couldn’t get level so their last penalty wasn’t taken and Carlow won the game and progressed to the Final for the very first time ever.
Again joy was unconfined and the whole squad celebrated, together with Coaches, League Officials, Parents, Siblings and Supporters, with Carlow erupting into their battle cry song ‘Carlow’s on Fire’ which was sung long and loud.
Carlow received many congratulations from other Squads and Facebook was full of tweets with good wishes to the Girls and there was only the Final itself to negotiate for Carlow to be in Dreamland.
