PREVIEW: Cork City WFC vs Kilkenny United WFC

Friday, 18 November 2016 16:45

Cork City WFC welcome Kilkenny United WFC to Bishopstown Stadium this Sunday at 2pm for the latest game in the Continental Tyre’s Women’s National League.

City won 4-0 when last they played Kilkenny in The Watershed in the reverse fixture and Manager Frank Kelleher had this to say ahead of the game on Sunday; “We welcome Kilkenny to Bishopstown on Sunday. It is an important game for both teams this weekend. We played Kilkenny earlier in the season away and got a hard earned win.”

Kelleher is wary of what Kilkenny can produce; “We will be very aware that Kilkenny are improving as the season progresses and we will have to be fully focused for this game. It will take a big effort from us to get a win a challenge that we have prepared for the past two weeks in training for."

On the injury front Tara Mannix is out while Danielle Sheehy will have a fitness test before Sunday.
