Munster A U-14 Quarter Finals Clare 10 – 13 Waterford 0 – 2 Clare Ladies U – 14 footballers made sure of their place in the Munster A semi-final against Cork on Wednesday 14th June (hopefully at Cusack Park , Ennis) with a big victory over Waterford on bank holiday Monday last. Clare bounced back from their recent defeat to Kerry and had a full panel available for selection. That this game went ahead at all is something the Munster Council will have to reflect on as Clare had already inflicted a serious drubbing on Waterford less than four weeks ago and it was predictable that a victory of similar proportions would again ensue. This cannot be good for either team and especially dispiriting for the Waterford girls whose enthusiasism and appetite for playing the game in the future will have been seriously dented. Clare started the game well with two goals from Megan Haugh after six minutes. Aileen Wall opened the Déise scoresheet with a Waterford point in the eight minute but this was quickly followed by points from Niamh O’Dea and Megan Haugh (3) and an Ailish Considine goal in the seventeenth minute. Aoife Davoren then got on the scoresheet for Clare with a well taken point before Waterford’s only other score of the game,a point from Nicola Fennel, was registered. Late in the first half Clare had further goals from Hough and Considine to leave the interval score Clare 5 – 6 to Waterford’s 0 – 2. In the second half it was all Clare from the throw in and even with five changes it made no difference to the game as Sinead Sexton and Shauna Keane impressed when they were introduced in place of Niamh O’Dea and Megan Hough of the Banner Club. Clare ‘s first score of the second half came for Ailish Considine with a goal after one minute followed by points from Considine , Haugh & Katie Curtin. Sinead Sexton goaled in the eight minute this was followed by a point from Eimear O’Connor before Clare again struck for goals from Sexton, Considine and Shauna Keane. Clare added further points from Sexton (2) and Ailsih Considine to leave the final score at Clare 10 – 13, Waterford 0 – 2 .
