Women’s shinty

shy back into the ‘D’ and although GMA goalie Stephanie Keenan got her foot to the ball, Caitlin MacLean raced in to raise the re-bound into the net.

GMA drew level just three minutes later when a Lyndsay Michie shy was swept into the net by Rachel McCafferty.

GMA went in front a minute after the re-start when Alana McGarrie forced the ball home following a scramble inside the ‘D’.

Skye responded well and when Lorna MacRae let an Ilana Paterson corner from the left run across goal, Caitlin MacLean applied the finishing touch to make it 2-2.

The winning goal came on 62 minutes following a swift Skye move which saw Jenna Beaton slip the ball to Lorna MacRae who ran towards the goal before calmly finishing to make it 3-2. This was an exciting encounter in front of a good sized crowd and there were a number of Scottish internationals on show for both sides. Skye now know that a win against Aberdour at Silver Sands in their final league fixture will give them their first Marine Harvest National Division 1 title.
