SHAMROCK ROVERS beat Waterford 7-1 at Tallaght Stadium this evening, as Stephanie Zambra made a winning start as interim manager.
The former Ireland international took charge after Collie O’Neill decided to resign from his position last week, leaving the team in sixth place with six games remaining.
However, the Hoops were still favourites against 10th-place Waterford, who have won just three matches all season.
Claire O’Reilly gave the hosts the lead in the 18th minute before Anna Butler doubled their advantage just before the half-hour mark.
