December glory for Donegal and Gallanagh
WHILE most people had turned their attention to wrapping presents or preparing the Christmas dinner on December 23, Aoife Gallanagh and her Donegal Women’s League Under 17 teammates had their biggest game of the season.
After a stop-start campaign, the Donegal side got a good run of matches in December and reached the Shield Final where an in-form Bray Wanderers side stood in their way.
Dundalk FC’s home ground of Oriel Park was the venue for the decider and it proved to be a close, tense match.

There was only one goal in the game, and it was Gallanagh who produced the goods with a smart finish.
