Kentstown Rovers u-18 girls shape up for FAI semi-final

The Kentstown Rovers u-18 girls team play in the Dublin-based Metropolitan Girls League, but their focus will be on a big game in the FAI National Cup on Sunday 19th February when they face a long journey to play Cregmore Claregalway in the last four of the competition.

This season they have produced some excellent performances and have twice beaten Shelbourne, once in the MGL Cup and also in the quarter-final of 
the FAI National Cup.

Last Sunday they were very unlucky in the semi-final of the MGL Cup where they shared four goals with Home Farm in a tie that went to extra-time and then a penalty shoot-out.

Kentstown were edged out from the spot in a shoot-out that went to sudden deat and took 28 penalties to find a winner.

Kentstown finished in the runner-up position last summer in the Dublin Women's Soccer League and they also won the DWSL Cup.
