Cliftonville beat Athlone Town as Glens lose

Cliftonville registered their first points of the All-Island Cup after a 3-2 victory against Athlone Town at Solitude.

Danielle Maxwell, who recently rejoined the Reds from Burnley, broke the deadlock in the 23rd minute.

Roisin Molloy levelled the entertaining match in north Belfast before Teegan Lynch converted Caitlin McGuinness' pass to put the home side back ahead.

However, once again, Athlone responded with Noelle Murray finding the back of the net.

McGuinness then secured the crucial three points in Group C on 69 minutes when she latched onto a long ball and fired into the bottom left-hand corner.

Defending Premiership champions Glentoran were beaten 1-0 by Waterford after Danielle Burke's 16th minute goal.

The Glens remain second in Group D, ahead of Waterford due to a superior goal difference.

Elsewhere, in Group B, Lisburn Rangers' wait for their first points of the competition continue after they were thrashed 4-1 by Galway United.

Aoibhinn Donnelly's early goal was cancelled out by a fine finish from Ellie-Mae Dickon on five minutes.

However, the away side responded well with Donnelly netting twice more and Kate Thompson also on the scoresheet at Crewe Park.
