Kerry through to third consecutive final after low-scoring win over Armagh

Goal from Niamh Ní Chonchúir crucial as Kingdom advance.

A GOAL IN the 16th minute from Niamh Ní Chonchúir helped Kerry advance to a third consecutive All-Ireland final.

Advertisement Yet team captain Clodagh McCambridge was temporarily replaced with a blood injury around this juncture following a clash with Kerry’s Aishling O’Connell, who was also forced off for a five-minute period, and in her absence Ní Chonchúir got on the end of an excellent move to drill a fierce strike past Armagh netminder Anna Carr.

This added a spark to the Kerry challenge and with Danielle O’Leary, Ní Mhuircheartaigh and the returning O’Connell finding the target to supplement a 0-2 salvo from skipper Niamh Carmody, the Munster champions were 1-7 to 0-5 in front at the break. The Kingdom, bidding for their first crown since 1993, were able to maintain possession for large stretches of the play, but it wasn’t until the 49th minute that Kerry got their second half account up and running with a pointed free from centre-forward O’Leary.
