WATCH: Limerick sweep aside sorry Kilkenny

Limerickโ€™s ladies gaelic football team kept their promotion hopes alive with a facile 7-20 to 1-3 victory over Kilkenny in Askeaton yesterday.

The result was already decided as Kilkenny arrived to Limerick with only 11 players, but Limerick decided to play the game โ€“ starting with 13 against Kilkennyโ€™s contingent.

Limerick got to their task quickly with early goals from Orlaith Oโ€™Donoghue and Siofra Keane.

Further three pointers followed from Grainne Cronin and Oโ€™Donoghue to give Limerick a 4-12 to 0-2 advantage at half time.

Limerick continued to boss things after the break and goals from Keane, Cathy Mee and Kirsty Carroll completed the rout.

โ€œWe knew coming into the game that we needed a high score and we got that,โ€ said Limerick manager John Ryan after the game.

โ€œWe are on the road again next week against Derry. We got the high score, but he now have to prepare again this week for Derry.

โ€œA lot of the players got game time and put up their hand. Thatโ€™s very, very positive. You need to be using your panel.โ€
