Aine Tighe puts UL out of sight against DCU

University of Limerick 3-16 Dublin City University 0-9

Jennifer Grant drilled the free to the unmarked Niamh O’Dea and the latter’s probing delivery was gathered by Aine Tighe on the edge of the DCU square. From that range, there was only going to be one outcome.

Tighe’s second goal on 41 minutes moved the champions 3-10 to 0-7 clear. Game over. The difference between the sides, said captain and player of the match Niamh O’Dea, was perfectly captured in that passage of play.
