Meanwhile Raheny United also started the season in devastating fashion putting Shamrock Rovers to the sword with a 5-0 win at Tallaght Stadium while Wexford Youths came from behind to draw 2-2 with Castlebar Celtic at Ferrycarrig Park.

Dublin's Peamount United proved to be too much for the Cork Women's League with Irish international striker Stephanie Roche bagging a hat-trick inside the opening half-hour while there were further goals from O'Gorman, Quinn and Kinsella to seal the points. Irish U17 international striker, Claire Shine got one back for Cork in the closing stages but it was too little too late as the game ended 6-1.

The highly anticipated Dublin derby between Shamrock Rovers and Raheny United was a story dominated by Irish international starlets as all five goals were scored by Ireland's underage heroines.

Senior international, Rebecca Creagh got on the score sheet in the 76th minute in-between a brace by U17 midfielder, Katie McCabe in the 74th and 88th minute.
