MMI.ie Wexford Cup Final

Curracloe United        0          Ferns United   1

Ferns rounded off the season by lifting the MMI Wexford Cup for the third time in five years when overcoming a very brave effort from a young Curracloe side. A strong breeze did little to affect the players as both sides produced some good passing football on an excellent surface in Bunclody. Chances were kept to a minimum in the first half with both sets of defences dominating and forwards reduced to long range efforts which were easily dealt with by both keepers. The breakthrough came on thirty eight minutes when Rachel Collier got on the end of a Leona Breen pass and she calmly slotted the ball past Laura Corrigan in the Curracloe goal. The second half saw Curracloe come in search of the equaliser but could not break down a strong Ferns defence and their only serious threat came from set pieces but still found it impossible to score and Ferns held on to lift the cup. League vice chairman Barry Dempsey presented the cup to the victorious side while Ferns Uniteds Georgina Moore collected the player of the match award
