The opening day of the annual Festival of Football week, linked to the FAI Annual General Meeting, featured the meeting of the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland Under 17 Women in Milebush Park, Castlebar on Sunday evening. The home side cruised to an emphatic 7-1 victory with home county striker Orla Devanney from Ballina Town scoring a first half hat-trick.

Cork City continue eircom Premier surge...20/07/2008
A fifty eight minute penalty converted by the prolific Dave Mooney in United Park this afternoon earned visitors Cork City three eircom Premier Division points at the expense of Drogheda United.

Honours even in eircom Premier relegation battle ...19/07/2008
eircom Premier Division relegation candidates, UCD and Cobh Ramblers shared the points in a dramatic one all draw in the Belfield Bowl this evening. Home goalkeeper Matt Gregg conceded an early penalty enabling the visitors to take the lead through Ross Gaynor. The custodian turned hero in added time when he joined the attack and headed home a Derek Doyle free kick. The tension of their financial position was not in evidence in the Showgrounds where financially beleaguered Sligo Rovers scored a comprehensive four one victory over North West rivals Finn Harps, who now drop into the relegation zone.
Shelbourne and Dundalk end scoreless in Tolka Park...18/07/2008
Dundalk, who returned to the top of the eircom First Division last weekend, travelled to Tolka Park this evening and shared the points in a scoreless draw with second placed Shelbourne. Third placed Waterford United were also held to a draw by Wexford Youths in Ferrycarrig Park, which enabled newcomers Sporting Fingal to close right up on the top three, following their fine three nil victory over Longford Town in Flancare Park.
Limerick 37 continue their upward surge...18/07/2008
The impact of new owner Jack McCarthy continues to have a positive effect on Limerick 37 as they secured another away victory with a two nil defeat of Monaghan United in the eircom First Division this evening. This surge of improved form, which also includes victories over leaders Dundalk and Shelbourne, may be just too late for promotion this season, but if maintained could make them favourites for promotion next season.
Cork City haul back two goal deficit in UEFA Cup ...17/07/2008
Turner's Cross was silenced after 14 minutes of this evening's UEFA Cup first round, first leg meeting of Cork City and FK Haka from Finland, when the visitors opened the scoring. The second half was only a few minutes old when the home side conceded a second goal. City, who have been in excellent form recently,showed their mettle with a storming fightback and goals from the prolific Dave Mooney on 64 minutes and an equaliser three minutes later from Dan Murray gives them some hope for the away leg at the end of the month.
