The Sky Blues reigned supreme in front of 45,326 fans at Croke Park today.
Emma Duffy Reports from Croke Park Laszlo Geczo / INPHO Carla Rowe lifting the Brendan Martin Cup. Laszlo Geczo / INPHO / INPHOMick Bohan’s side laid the foundations for their latest All-Ireland success with a superb first-half showing. Two quick-fire points inside the first minute set the tone, and Dublin led by seven at the break — 0-11 to 0-4.
The Kingdom relied heavily on Louise Ní Mhuircheartaigh, who was well shackled by Leah Caffrey, while Niamh Carmody was their only other scorer in the opening period. Ní Mhuircheartaigh blazed over a goal chance in the 12th minute and Dublin hit an unanswered 0-6 in the following 16-minute period to lead by eight just before half time.
Tyrrell won an FAI Cup with St Catherine’s and played for Shamrock Rovers in the Women’s National League; she enjoyed Six Nations glory and featured at the 2017 World Cup as she starred for the Ireland rugby 15s and Sevens teams; and this is her second chapter with the Dublin ladies football team. “I would find it hard to walk away after this year,” she said shortly afterwards. “I feel like I still have a lot more to give.”
Their slow start was detrimental, with Quill noting how “passive” they were post-match. “The girls put their heart and soul into it and there’s no doubting that, but at the end of the day, Dublin were just the superior team,” the emotional co-manager conceded.
