All Ireland Feile Ladies Semi Final: New York vs Clann Na Gael (Roscommon) 7/3/2010

NY make the finals!

The ladies are through to the All Ireland Feile Final after a close encounter with Clann Na Gael from county Roscommon in Castledawson saturday evening at 430pm. A first half goal from Johanna Levine following a long delivery from midfield gave New York their opening goal with Mairead Ruane adding a point in the 10th minute to leave the half time scores 1-01 to no score.

Clann Na Gael were quickest to respond from the break with a score in the 16th minute. Caitlin Mc Kenna bundled in another goal in the 25th minute to leave the scores 2-02 to 0-01 with five minutes left. New York seemed to be home and dry but a goal from the Rossie girls gave New York a shock. 30 seconds later Clann added another score to leave the scores 2-02 to 1-02 with 4 minutes left , this was turning into a real nail bitter and with 3 minutes left Clann were awarded a free 21 yards out and a goal seemed to be on but the centre forward elected to tip it over the bar to leave a two point advantage with two minutes left. New York put in a great defensive effort for the last number of minutes to ensure a victory and progression to the All Ireland Final in Celtic Park on Sunday.
