WATCH: Limerick cruise into All-Ireland semi final with comfortable win over New York

Graham Shine’s Limerick ladies football side are into the last four of the TG4 LGFA Junior Championship following a 4-11 to 1-5 win over New York at the TUS Gaelic Grounds.

Limerick led 2-9 to 1-2 at the end of the first half but were quite wasteful in front of goal. That trend continued after the break with Shine’s side only managing 2-2 and ended up with 14 wides.

The game started with Marie Dargan opening the scoring for New York but Limerick soon responded with 1-1 from Cathy Mee.

Limerick continued to dominate with scores from Amy Ryan, Mairead Kavanagh and Niamh Ryan before Mee netted the second goal.

Mee then slotted a point from play before Kelly Brady found the net for New York from the penalty spot and Dargan sent over her second point of the half.

Points from Iris Kenneally and Rebecca Delee saw Limerick finish the half strongly and into a 10 point advantage at half time.

New York improved in the second half but goals from Kenneally and Delee saw Limerick book their last four spot. See highlights from the game below.
