Katie Quirke hits 0-7 for Cork but goals prove crucial for Connacht side.
RÓISÍN LEONARD AND Ailbhe Davoren struck the crucial first half goals at O’Connor Park as Galway returned to a All-Ireland final for the first time since 2019 with a victory over Cork .
However, having gone agonisingly close to raising a green flag moments earlier, Corofin ace Leonard bagged a goal from a penalty after the raiding Charlotte Cooney had been fouled by Cork defender Aoife Healy. Although Leonard converted a tricky free on the stroke of half-time to offer the Tribeswomen a 2-4 to 0-5 interval lead, Cork brought the gap down to three on 38 minutes thanks to two exceptional points from play by Bride Rovers attacker Quirke.
