Gala All Ireland senior championship update & all results

“

Kilkenny took a big scalp in Semple Stadium today, defeating Tipperary on home soil, in their opening round game in the Gala All Ireland senior championship, 1-14 to 1-11. A more consistent Black and Amber outfit turned 0-7 to 0-4, with a Michelle Quilty goal four minutes after the changeover reinforcing the visitors position.

Aoife Neary recorded nine points for the winners, while Claire Grogan top scored for Tipperary with 1-7 – the goal which came in the final minutes was scored from a penalty.

Galway pulled away with a powerful second half performance to overcome Clare in Athenry, 3-17 to 1-4. The score was much tighter after the first 30 minutes with the Maroon and White holding a slender two point lead, 1-5 to 1-3.

However, with Veronica Curtin coming into her own, bagging 2-4, it was difficult for the Banner girls to bounce back. Carina Roseingrave provided the Clare goal early in the first half, but with Aislinn Connolly scooping 1-8 there was no way back for the Munster side.
