Corinthians secure treble with cup final victory

Corinthians won the MBL-sponsored Women's FA Cup last night following a
4-0 victory over their Ballafletcher neighbours Douglas Royal in the final.

In doing so, they completed the treble, already securing the Floodlit Cup and the Division 1 championship - replicating their achievements from the 2009/10 season.

They led 1-0 at half time thanks to a Kiera Morgan header.

The trophy was then secured via second-half strikes from Amy Speed, Morgan again and a Sarah O'Reilly free kick.

The match also witnessed the most sendings off in a Manx women's football final.

Douglas Royal's Bekki Cole and Corinthians's Stephanie Hall were dismissed in the first half with Royal's captain Kym Hicklin given her marching orders just before full time.
