Super Siofra O'Shea nets hat-trick as Kerry LGFA book place in All-Ireland semi-finals with comfortable win over Kildare
TWO first-half goals from Síofra O'Shea gave Kerry the platform to sweep Kildare aside in their TG4 All-Ireland SFC quarter-final. The Lilywhites got off to a strong start at Austin Stack Park, notching four points in the first nine minutes, but the Southern Gaels star's goals — she added a third after the break — were the hammer blow. With Alannah Prizeman — who hit two frees — Aoife Rattigan and Gillian Wheeler all finding the target for the Leinster side, the Kingdom were slower out of the blocks. But in the tenth minute, a cross-field kick found Emma Costello and after her shot was parried by goalkeeper Mary Hulgraine, O'Shea scored the rebound. Danielle O'Leary was also getting into her stride and the Rathmore attacker fired over two points, with a Rachel Dwyer effort sandwiched in between. Ciara Wheeler and Prizeman responded at the other end, with the sides level at 1-3 to 0-6 with 22 minutes on the clock. Two minutes later, the Kingdom were awarded a penalty when O'Shea was fouled by Lauren Murtagh. Read More on LGFA The And, despite Prizeman's Trojan work , a superb Anna Galvin point put the defending champions four up at the break, 2-5 to 0-7. The game was over as a contest in the 39th minute when O'Shea completed her hat-trick and the hosts remained in control until the end. KERRY : ME Bolger; E Lynch, D Kearney, C Lynch; A O'Connell, E Costello, A Dillane; M O'Connell, A Galvin 0-1; N Carmody 0-1, N Ní Chonchúir 0-1, C Evans 0-1; R Dwyer 0-1, S O'Shea 3-2, 1f, D O'Leary 0-4.

Síofra O'Shea shines as Kerry see off Kildare
A brace of first-half goals from hat-trick hero Síofra O'Shea played a major part in Kerry's 3-12 to 0-11 victory over Kildare in the TG4 All-Ireland SFC quarter-final at Austin Stack Park. Even though the Lilywhites got off to a very strong start, notching four points in the opening nine minutes to take the early ascendancy, the concession of the two green flags before the break was a hammer blow to the visitors. With Alannah Prizeman (two frees), Aoife Rattigan and Gillian Wheeler all finding the target for the Leinster side, the Kingdom were slower out of the blocks before they struck for their first goal in the 10th minute. A cross-field kick from Niamh Carmody, and a pass from Cáit Lynch slipped advancing centre-back Emma Costello through the Kildare defence, and after her shot was parried by goalkeeper Mary Hulgraine, O'Shea was on hand to tap home the rebound. Danielle O'Leary was now getting into her stride, and the Rathmore attacker fired over two points, with a Rachel Dwyer effort sandwiched in between. Ciara Wheeler and Prizeman responded at the other end and the score was level after 22 minutes at 1-03 to 0-06. The Kingdom edged in front before the half's most crucial moment in the 24th minute when Niamh Ní Chonchúir set up O'Shea inside the Kildare cover and, after being fouled while in the act of shooting by Lauren Murtagh, a penalty was awarded. The Kerry full-forward picked herself up off the ground to beat the visiting custodian with a low spot-kick to the keeper's right and, despite Prizeman's trojan work, a superb Anna Galvin point had the defending champions four up at the break at 2-05 to 0-07. Kildare needed a boost early on the resumption, but Prizeman had a goalbound shot blocked on the line by Kerry captain Lynch, before Kerry, and O'Shea, pounced for green flag number three in the 39th minute to end the game as a contest. Midfielder Galvin was the instigator, fetching a kick-out and sending a pinpoint delivery to O'Shea, who gave Hulgraine no mistake. From there to the finish, the hosts were always in control, eventually cruising home by a 10-point margin to set up a last-four meeting with either Meath or Tipperary. Scorers Kerry: S O'Shea 3-2 (1-0pen, 0-1f), D O'Leary 0-4, R Dwyer, A Galvin, N Carmody, K Brosnan, N Ní Chonchúir, C Evans 0-1 each.
