The referee has blown the final whistle and it's game over here in The Showgrounds. Sligo Rovers 0-2 Galway United

Another injury for Sligo Rovers as Ciara Henry gets attention but it's winding down the minutes at this stage as Galway look to have all three points in the bag.

Five minutes added here after a number of injuries in this half.

McKiernan stays on the field as Galway make another chance. Sligo have found a second gear but it might be too little, too late to rescue a positive result here ahead of the mid season break.

Big collision between McKiernan and Olusola as the young Sligo keeper came out bravely to challenge. Her input coupled with a scrambled defence was enough to ensure the ball stayed out of the net, but she may not continue for the last five minutes.

Aoife Brennan has looked lively since her introduction. She's just won a free kick about 30 yards out from goal. She likes this kind of range.

Sligo appear to have decided themselves that this game is over as a contest. Three changes from the home side as they ring the changes from the bench with a triple subsititution.

Howe has been replaced and now Emma Hansberry is struggling and receiving attention. She's been hugely influential for Sligo this evening. Sligo appear to be making some changes.

Jenna Slattery takes advantage of another Sligo slip up at the back as Jenna Slattery pounces on the long ball from Canadian Jamie Erikson to find the top corner from close range.

Concern for Sligo as Casey Howe is upended in a challenge by Berlin who smothers the Sligo forward's scoring opportunity. Genuine concern as she takes a while to get back to her feet.

Sligo Rovers are applying serious pressure in the opening exchanges here but Galway are soaking up the pressure well.

What a tackle from Leah Kelly. having misread the original ball which bounced over her head, Kelly recovered to deny Rola Olusola a certain goal as the referee blows the half time whistle.

Emma Hansberry leaves a free kick for Casey Howe but the Northern Ireland international can not find the target from 25 yards.

The Sligo faithful are up in arms as Emma Doherty is upended in the box but the referee gives a free out to Galway and draws the ire of the crowd and the Sligo bench.

Very early subsitution for Galway with Gemma McGuinness being replaced by Rola Olusola

Big opportunity for the home side to strike back but Casey Howe just can't get the ball under control from an awkward cross in the middle of the box.

Galway have taken the lead. They had been threatening for a while but Therese Kinnevey applies the finish but a deflection gives McKiernan no chance in the Sligo goal.

Galway United are beginning to dictate the pace of this game. They look comfortably the stronger of the two sides in the early exchanges.

Bright start from the home side but Leah Kelly's ball can't find the feet of Emma Doherty as Jessica Berlin commands her area well.

Galway have gotten the game underway in the Showgrounds. Gemma McGuinness returns to the Showgrounds for the first time since joining the Tribeswomen during the close season.
