UPDATE: The stage is set for a thrilling showdown as the Women’s All-Island Cup Final kicks off at Ferrycarrig Park on Sunday, August 31, 2025. Wexford will battle Bohemians in a match that promises to be a historic event, with both teams vying for their first title in this competition.

Fans will be glued to their screens as TG4 broadcasts the match live, marking the third final in the tournament’s history. This year, a new name will be etched into the trophy after Galway United claimed back-to-back victories in 2023 and 2024.

Local excitement is palpable as Kilkenny’s own stars, Orlaith Conlon, Ellen Molloy, and Freya DeMange, take the field for Wexford. Their involvement adds a personal touch that resonates deeply within the community.

Wexford has secured home advantage, having won the toss, and they’ll look to capitalize on this opportunity. Meanwhile, Bohemians are determined to make a statement in their inaugural final since establishing their senior women’s team in 2020.

This will be Wexford’s first final appearance after two heartbreaking losses to Galway United in previous years. They finally broke through in July thanks to a crucial goal from Molloy. Goalkeeper Maria O’Sullivan has been instrumental, achieving four clean sheets on their journey to the final, including victories over Lisburn Rangers, Shamrock Rovers, and DLR Waves in the group stage. Wexford then triumphed over Peamount United and Galway United to reach this decisive match.

On the other hand, Bohemians may lack final experience, but they boast seasoned players like goalkeeper Rachael Kelly and defender Lisa Murphy. Both athletes have participated in all 11 matches leading up to the final. Murphy emerged as a key player, scoring the opening goal against Linfield, netting a brace against Glentoran, and converting a vital penalty in a semi-final shoot-out victory over Shelbourne.

As the clock ticks down to kickoff, anticipation builds. If the match ends in a draw, fans can expect extra time and a penalty shootout to determine this year’s champion. Both teams are poised to outsmart each other in a contest that promises high stakes and unforgettable moments.

Stay tuned as we bring you live updates on this exciting final, where Wexford and Bohemians will clash for glory. This match is not just about winning; it’s about the passion and dedication of these talented athletes who represent their communities with pride.
