Scots youngsters against Ireland

IRELAND 6  SCOTLAND  0  –  UNDER 18
GIRL`S CHALLENGE MATCH

Although the first half was a fairly even affair, Ireland`s
three goal lead did not reflect the difference between the
sides.  The Irish goals came from open play and were due
mainly to Scotland`s defensive mistakes.

“We`re very positive looking forward to tomorrow`s game where we
hope we`ll be much fresher after all our travelling and a late
night game,” said Louise McIntyre, Scotland`s manager.

Scotland coach Bill Robson admitted that his young charges
struggled physically with the Irish in the first half and found
themselves 3-1 down at the interval, Kerry-Anne Hastings (CALA
Edinburgh and Mary Erskine School) got Scotland`s only counter from
a rebound at a penalty corner.   The Scots youngsters had
a much improved second half which they won 1-0, again Hastings
found the net from a penalty.
