By the bye

Cliftonville Ladies will face Linfield Ladies in the County Antrim Women’s Cup Final.

The Reds had been due to take on Carnmoney Ladies in a Semi Final clash at Solitude but this afternoon, but the visitors were unfortunately forced to withdraw from the competition, handing Cliftonville a bye through to the July 28 decider.

Martin Douglas’ side – who will also face the Blues in the Women’s Premiership League Cup Final at Seaview on Friday night – instead took on Carnmoney in a friendly today, registering a 6-0 victory courtesy of goals from Marissa Callaghan (2), Louise Doherty, Leah McEvoy and Joana Da Silva (2).
