Galway WFC host Cork in a fixture that sees both sides looking for their first victory of the season. The home side announced the signing of five players from this year’s FAI Intermediate finalists Colga FC earlier this week. 

 

Coach Nigel Keady has added Marian Murray, Keara Cormican, Leah Philips, Susie Cunningham and Alana Moran from Colga FC and he believes they will strengthen his hand. 

 

Keady said: “We are delighted to finally be able to able to sign these players, their success with Colga had delayed their signing until this week. The home crowd were a big factor in helping us come from behind twice in our opening home game.  I have no doubt that we will see many of those supporters return on Sunday along with many more who will be attracted by the quality of football on display.” 

 

Cork Women’s FC Chris O’Mahony said: “We played a friendly in midweek and got two players injured. Megan Carroll, Natalie O’Brien, Angie Carry, Amy Lee Quinn are all out. Lynsey McKey is a doubt. The word is that Galway are a decent side.”
