Sunday 1 Nov 2020.
Galway v Offaly: Liberty Insurance All Ireland Camogie Championship.
Pearse Stadium.
Galway 3-13 Wexford 0-03.
Connacht Tribune: Galway show no mercy in putting Offaly to the sword.
A wet and wild afternoon in Salthill was the setting for the Galway senior camogie team’s round two victory over Offaly on Sunday. Playing with the elements, the All-Ireland champions buried the visitors in the first half with a classy display, showcasing their ability with some outstanding link up play and score taking.
Offaly may have been weak opponents on the day, but the Tribeswomen showed the sort of form which bodes well for this Sunday’s group deciding clash with championship rivals Cork.
Cathal Murray made two changes from the starting 15 which lined out against Wexford, with Rebecca Hennelly and Orlaith McGrath coming into the Galway attack. The home side opened their account within seconds of the throw in. Orlaith McGrath and Ailish O’Reilly were involved in a passing move which saw Hennelly fire over an excellent point from the left wing.
