Ballinteer defend OZO Shield title

(09 Oct 2011)

Ballinteer St Johns and Ballyboden St Endas played out a thrilling Senior B Shield final in Marlay Park with both sides having claims to the crown.

Boden's top scorer Fiona Ní Shúilleabháin gave her side a tonic start after 7 minutes when she sent an Orla O'Shea delivery to the back of the net.  But John's levelled themselves with another fine goal two minutes later.

Points from Niamh McKennedy and Aine Goggins gave Ballinteer a slight advantage before Orla O'Shea and Laura Burns level by half time.

After the break Boden enjoyed a good spell and went back in front with points by Orla O'Shea and Fiona Ní Shúilleabháin.

John's radar was a bit of cue and they clocked up 12 wides over the hour but a long range free by Fiona Hayes ended up in the net in the 41st minute to give them the lead.

However Roisin Ryan was back on track to land the equaliser for Ballyboden before 6 minutes from the finish captain Niamh McKennedy landed the winner for the Marlay Park outfit.
