Bryansford 8-3 v Bredagh 6-0, Bryansford Sun 11th May
A new piece of history was made on Sunday 11th May when the first ever Bredagh U-16 Girls team played Bryansford
in the U-16 Down League.
The girls were a credit to the club and played with great heart against last year's U16 championship winners.
Throw-up
Team Captain Amy Cunningham opted to play with the wind in the first half and Bredagh got off to a storming start
when long balls into the Bryansford defence dropped to Kathryn Quinn who stuck 2 goals in the net to put Bredagh
ahead.
Bryansford stormed back to score a few points and Bredagh were unlucky to concede an own goal when a rebound hit off
the post against a Bredagh player and into the net.
The scores were level and Bredagh continued to hold their own with outstanding defensive play from Hannah Murrah and
Orla Day, helped by great fielding and clearing from full-back Kate Hollywood.
Bredagh continued to press forward with Caoimhe McCullagh and Cassie Moane competing well against a tough Bryansford
defence.
Emma Mulhorn put Bredagh ahead with a goal scored from a long-range effort that dipped just under the crossbar.
Despite the Bredagh pressure, Bryansford put together some great hand-passing moves which resulted in two more
goals.
Bredagh responded when a brilliant run by Clare Byrne saw her beat two Bryansford players before giving a great pass
across the square to Kathryn Quinn who made it a hat-trick of goals.
Bryansford added a few more points to leave the half-time score Bryansford 4-2 v Bredagh 5-0
Well-deserved rest at half-time
Against the breeze Bredagh were under pressure for much of the second half but they stood firm with Anna McAlliney
in goals making some good saves and Polly Moane showing well for the Bredagh kick-outs.
Even when the ball reached the full-back line Lisa Kelly, a real team-player, was always on-hand to make the
all-important interception and tough-tackling Sinead Norwood stuck well to her player.
The Bredagh half-back line worked tirelessly but struggled to get the ball past the midfield area. Bryansford made
the pressure count with two goals when long kicks into the penalty area dropped just under the crossbar.
Bredagh were not finished yet and responded by pressing forward. Good chasing and catching from Moya McGurk, who
showed great heart, was rewarded when she caught a ball, beat a Bryansford defender and scored a goal to bring
Bredagh back into the match.
This was followed up by Cassie Moane, who did brilliantly against two Bryansford defenders to break the ball, which
was then picked up by Kathryn Quinn and dispatched to the Bryansford net.
With 10 minutes to go Bredagh were only a point behind and had another goal chance which went a begging.
A brilliant run from the Bryansford midfielder resulted in a goal and Bryansford showed their determination and
experience in scoring another goal and a point to kill the match.

tenacious defending from Lisa Kelly, Jamie Willigan and Orla Day.
As half-time approached the defence tired to concede another goal to leave the half-time score Bright 4-4 v Bredagh 1-0
In the second Bredagh came out full of determination to reverse the first-half score and played with great heart and conviction.
A goal from Moya McGurk set them on their way and this was supplemented by great points from Emma Mulhern and Clare Byrne.
With Amy Cunningham making great interceptions at centre half-back and great work-rate from Katie Campbell, Bredagh piled on the pressure.
Intelligent running from Emma Mulhern and Clare Byrne put a lot of pressure on the Bright defence.
Polly Moane was catching everything in the air and distributing the ball well and when Moya McGurk got a second goal, it looked as
if nothing could stop Bredagh.
Bright responded and ran at the Bredagh defence, but Bredagh held firm with good team-work from Hannah Murrah, Amy Cunningham and Louise Fitzpatrick preventing Bright from getting any scoring opportunities.
Emma Mulhern added another point to leave just 2 points between the teams but good defending from Bright held Bredagh at bay for a crucial 5 minute-spell.
With time running out a long ball into the Bright penalty area fell to brilliant forward Cassie Moane and she stuck it over the ball to leave only a point between the teams.
Bredagh ran out of time and were unlucky not to get a point.
The girls were gutted by the result but showed exceptional heart and determination to come back from such a deficit.
