WYW v Kilkenny

[ForzaForth]

Comfortable win for WYW in Ferrycarrig this afternoon as they gathered the three points without bother, but great credit to Kilkenny and their mentors as both never gave up despite playing with only ten due to injuries and work. Wexford started with Sophie, Nicola, Lolly, Lauren, Amy, Aisling, Orla, Kylie, Katrina and with Rianna and Claire up front. It took WYW a while to get used to the unusual demographics of the game but first goal came on 14 minutes when Rianna Jarrett turned in a goal which may have come off a Kilkenny defender. After Lauren Dwyer hit the cross-bar with a speculative long-range effort, it was 2-0 just after the half-hour when Rianna netted a close-in volley. It was 3-0 just before the whistle when Rianna headed in a great cross by Nicola Sinnott. 3-0 to the home side at half-time.

Wexford brought on Cliodhna Ni She and Ciara Delaney at half-time who both did well. Katrina Parrock, coming on in leaps and bounds, made it 4-0 shortly into the second half when she converted a Kylie Murphy through-ball. Katrina Parrock then turned provider when her crosses were met by the heads of Orla Casey for 5-0 and then Rianna Jarrett for 6-0. Final sub for Wexford was Rachel Hutchinson who also looked comfortable in midfield. Kilkenny had the spirit to drag a good scrambling save from Sophie Lenehan in the Wexford goal with only a few minutes to go. 6-0 to WYW at full-time and hopefully Kilkenny can get their players back after a good result against Limerick last week.
