Girls Premier

INTER Kenmare made it three wins from three as they extended their lead at the top of the table after a 3-0 win away to Killarney Athletic.

Inter got off to the perfect start with Kiera O’Leary scoring inside two minutes when she refused to give up on what looked like a lost cause and powered home from close range.

The game remained tight thereafter with both defences doing well, but it was Inter that got the vital second goal just before the break. Chloe Cremins shot was well saved by the Athletic keeper, but O’Leary was quickest to react and got her and her sides second goal.

Athletic threw everything at Inter to try and get one back, but were caught late on when Grace Roberts White got in behind their defence and crossed for Orla O’Brien to score and wrap up the win.

For an Athletic side that gave everything Laura O’Carroll and Sarah Neher were the best players on the day.
