UNDER-19 REPORT | Galway United 2-0 Limerick

Galway United under-19s got back to winning ways against Limerick on Wednesday evening.

Nigel Keady’s side put an end to a run of defeats with a 2-0 win against Tommy Barrett’s side.

United lost their previous two league games in injury time against Bray Wanderers and Waterford FC but after Declan Sharkey’s opener, a reversal never looked likely.

The former Finn Harps man sealed a brace with a fantastic strike from distance that left Limerick goalkeeper Tommy Holland stranded.

The win moves United up to 6th place in the league table.

Galway United: Mulryan; Horgan, Leggett, M. Nugent, Whelan (Reen); Coyne ( C. Nugent), Mulgannon, O’Sullivan (Dunne), Daly (Sharkey), Manning; Carney (Walsh)

Limerick: Holland; Gunddare, O’Connor, Brouder, O’Sullivan, O’Loghlen, Fitzgerald, O’Connell, Fitzgerald, Madigan, Armshaw
