SN an Choimín side who won on Wednesday
SN an Choimín emerged victorious in a tense Letterkenny Cup final, securing a 3-0 win over Scoil Mhuire, Ramelton after extra time in the Donegal Primary Schools 11-a-side girls’ competition.
The two sides, well acquainted from last year’s final, battled fiercely in Wednesday morning’s decider. Both teams created chances in normal time, but neither could find the breakthrough as defences held firm.
With the score still level at full-time, the match went to extra time. The deadlock was finally broken midway through the second period when SN an Choimín found a way past Ramelton’s resolute defence.
