Moy ladies played away to Badoney on Sunday evening. Rain and a greasy surface made for difficult conditions in a game played 13 a side. The home team got off to a perfect start with an early goal as a speculative shot slipped under the crossbar and into the back of the Moy net. Lucy Conroy got Moy off the mark with two points in the first seven minutes but the home team were soaring as they raced to a 1-5 to 0-2 lead in the opening quarter. Emer Currie converted a close range free after Lucy McAlary was fouled following a surging run through the middle. Emma Conroy finished the first half scoring with a free from an acute angle to leave the home team with a healthy 1-6 to 0-4 advantage.
The second half started much like the first with Badoney recording 1-1 in the first three minutes of the half. A high looping ball into the square was punched to the net by the Badoney full forward which left the Moy ladies with an uphill battle and a 9 point deficit with the scores at 2-7 to 0-4.
Credit to the Moy ladies they rallied and would outscore their opponents by 9 points to 1 in the final twenty two minutes. Emma Conroy was to the fore with 7 second half points (5 from play). Emer Currie tagged on 2 points (1 free, 1 from play) to leave just the minimum between the sides with 2 minutes remaining on the clock. Alas it wasn’t to be as time ran out on a gallant comeback. Ultimately the ladies in sky blue had given themselves too much to do and will rue the opening period in each half.
