Lynsey Noone and player of the match Roisin Leonard bagged second-half goals at Croke Park this afternoon as Galway came from behind against Cork to secure the Lidl National Football League Division 2 title.
A TG4 All Star winner in 2024, Katie Quirke had provided Cork with a perfect start to the action when she drilled a low shot to the bottom right-hand corner of the Galway net in the third minute. Although Leonard got Daniel Moynihan’s westerners up and running with a pointed free, their Leeside counterparts moved four points clear with back-to-back efforts from Quirke and centre-forward Laura O’Mahony.
