Síofra O'Shea suffered the knee injury at training recently.
KERRY STAR LOUISE Ní Mhuircheartaigh says her side dedicated their All-Ireland semi-final victory to their injured captain Síofra O’Shea who has been ruled out with an ACL.
Ní Mhuircheartaigh will deputise for O’Shea for the remainder of the season as the Kingdom look to avenge for the hurt they suffered in last year’s All-Ireland final, when they face Dublin on 13 August. And she says their semi-final victory over Mayo in Thurles was for their fallen leader.“This 100% was for Siofra,” said a delighted Ní Mhuircheartaigh after scoring an impressive 1-10 in the semi-final.
Kerry built up a 1-10 to 0-4 lead at the break against Mayo, but Michael Moyles’s side summoned a big fightback in the second half. Deirdre Doherty scored a crucial goal shortly after her introduction as the sides faced a nervy stretch through the final phases of the game.
