Moville Community College celebrate All-Ireland success
WE always knew Moville Community College senior girls football team were good – now here’s the pictures to prove it.
The college girls have been crowned All-Ireland schools champions after an incredible victory over holders Christ The King College Cork in Dublin.
The Donegal girls actually trailed their Cork opponents at the Oscar Traynor Complex by 3-1.
But the Moville girls showed their true grit, stamina and possession football philosophy to come back and win 4-3!
The girls were already Ulster champions after an 8-0 win over local rivals Carndonagh.
But they proved to be amongst the very top in national football with their victory over Christ The King which had five internationals on their team.
Meanwhile Donegal player Amber Barrett from Lagan Harps FC has been named in the Ireland U-17 squad which flew to Austria today to complete their UEFA European Championship Elite Phase qualifying group when they face Norway on Sunday at 1pm in Neulengbach.
Dave Connell’s side’s final Group Two game against Norway on March 31 had to be postponed after heavy overnight snow as had the other tie between Poland and Austria.
Poland only need a point against the hosts to qualify, while an Austria win would take them through as long as Norway do not beat Ireland. If Norway do win, Austria must beat Poland by three goals to pip them.
