It was the second meeting between these sides in a matter of days. Last weekend, Shels enjoyed a 2-1 away victory over Peamount, but the latter gained sweet revenge this time around.
Tonight’s tie was scoreless at the interval but O’Gorman handed her side the lead after 53 minutes.
As Wexford chased the game late on, Smith doubled Peamount’s lead with a left-footed strike to seal the win.
The Women’s National League fixture between Cork City and Wexford Youths that was fixed for tonight was called off due to an unplayable pitch in Knockgriffin Park.
