A great afternoon of international football flavour in Broomfield as Gaelico Galego, the visiting Spanish GAA side, took on Syls.

π Evening β Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship β Round 2 (Seniors)
St Sylvesters 4-15 | Commercials 3-24
A high-scoring thriller in Broomfield saw Syls edged out despite a huge effort.

A late rally, including a penalty goal, cut the deficit to five with two minutes to play, but time ran out. Plenty of positives, but also frustration at chances left behind.

Shout out to Kate Sullivan, Clodagh Fox & Nicole Owens, who helped Dublin overcome Galway to book their place in the All-Ireland Final on August 3rd.
ππ We are immensely proud to have three Syls players in an All-Ireland Final!
