Aherne blasts Dubs to Leinster crown

DUBLIN defeated Kildare to retain their TG4 Leinster Ladies Senior Football Championship crown yesterday.

Sinéad Aherne scored 3-4 for the Sky Blues in a one-sided affair at Dr Cullen Park in Carlow, as Gerry McGill’s outfit held onto their provincial title at the same venue where they defeated Laois last year.

Dublin’s impressive 5-8 to 0-12 win secured the provincial title for the fifth time, as the Dubs repeated their handsome Bord Gáis Energy National League victory against the same opposition.
