SHELBOURNE KEPT THEIR FAI Women’s Cup title defence on track with a come-from-behind win over DLR Waves, while Sligo Rovers and Athlone Town also advanced to the semi-finals.

Fresh from their Champions League adventure, Shels rallied to win 2-1 at Tolka Park this afternoon. Freya Roche put the visitors in the lead after just eight minutes, but Megan Smyth-Lynch levelled matters shortly before the half-hour mark. It was a case of third time lucky for Steve Feeney’s side, who had fallen to two defeats to Bohs in a difficult season thus far. This will come as a huge confidence booster for the Westerners.

Deadlocked at 0-0 after 120 minutes at Athlone Town Stadium, Peas started brightest in the shootout with Niamh Reid Burke pulling off two big saves. But Athlone shot-stopper Katie Keane proved the hero as she denied Chloe Moloney in sudden death.
