Galway hit Kilkenny with three first half goals in last year’s final and there was no comeback from it. This time they only conceded one, a well-worked first half finish involving the McGrath sisters from Sarsfields, Siobhan setting up Orlaith who went round Aoife Norris and finished to the net at the Hill 16 end.
The goal was a severe insult to Kilkenny’s defensive effort up to then. Aside from Phelan, Michelle Teehan had made a series of alert interventions, and Grace Walsh was often seen helping out and relieving pressure. They harried and hassled Galway and closed up the spaces around goal.
