In the closing stages, Amber Barrett bagged what turned out to be Peamount’s winner after Shelbourne failed to clear their lines.
In the other semi-final, Katrina Parrick broke the deadlock five minutes from time for Wexford Youths Women to hand them a narrow 1-0 victory against UCD Waves.
Fantastic second half performance, super goal from Katrina & a richly deserved trip to the Aviva in Nov. for this great group of players. Thanks to everyone for their great support this evening as always! Safe journey home to everyone from Waves. FT @YouthsWomen 1-0 @ucdwavespic.twitter.com/hlFH7pYGeO
