Facile win for WYW in a windy Ferrycarrig tonight as they comfortably disposed of near-neighbours, Kilkenny, in the South-East derby. The notable selection by Gary Hunt was the retention of Sophie Lenihan in goal as Gary went with Sophie, Nicola, Jess, Chelsee, Linda, Rachel, Becky, Emma, Aoibhin and with Maria and Claire up front. WYW took a while to make their class and additional fitness tell, but became more dominant as the game went on. First goal was awarded to Linda Douglas on 21 minutes when her header back from the far post was deemed to have crossed the line before Claire O'Riordan got her touch. Earlier, WYW's Sophie Lenihan had made a decent catch from a free by Suarez of Kilkenny. On 34 minutes, Claire made it 2-0 when a cross by the excellent Linda Douglas was finished to the net. WYW finished the first half with a number of chances and eventually made it 3-0 with Claire heading home a corner. 3-0 at half-time and WYW looking very comfortable.
