First goal was a freekick from the left wing that was floated all the way into the net. Commentator credited her with spotting the keeper off her line. :lol:
Second goal was Ghana overplaying it at the back and an attempted risky pass was blocked and the loose ball was hammered home emphatically into the roof of the net. Very good strike actually.
Killeen down the left wing looks like a smashing player.
Our keeper made a great save just after they missed a penalty; she looks a bit like Paddy Kenny.
Commentator just said, ‘All the green ribbons in the Irish players’ hair are done by Stacie Donnelly - she’s an apprentice hairdresser.’ :lol:
[/quote] :lol: The commentator is really getting into this now,according to him we would play Japan should we top the group and Spain if we finish second…Japan please.These girls are actually a top 5 global side it seems and could very well reach a WC final which would be a huge achievement considering our tiny population!
Ghana pinned us back for the last 5 minutes; another good save by Moloney before we cleared a header from a corner off the line. The suspended Noel King is looking on nervously from the stand.
After the Katie Taylor fight this is some anti-climax. The standard is fairly poor and reminds me of watching a Division 5 game in the Wexford Junior League.
