In S5E23 of the League of Ireland Women’s Podcast, Breifne Earley and Aaron Clarke dive into another packed week of LOI Women’s action.

🇪🇺 Athlone Town’s European adventure continues as they back up last week’s 4-0 win with another dominant display to secure their progression to the next stage and introduce some exciting new signings. We'll discuss their latest arrivals:

🇩🇪 German midfielder Katherina "Kat" Oelschlaeger

🇺🇸 US-born forward Alexis Strickland

🏆 We also reflect on a weekend filled with goals, drama, and a few defensive disasters:


⚽ Katie McCarn hit a hat-trick as Bohemians ran out 5-2 winners over DLR Waves

🔝 Shelbourne went top of the table after a 2-0 win away to Cork City

🟣 Wexford burst the Shamrock Rovers bubble, coming from behind to win 2-1 and end Stephanie Zambra’s dream start

🟢 Peamount flew out of the blocks, but a red card turned the tide as they scrambled a point against Galway United

🔵 Sligo Rovers picked up a massive win on the road, beating Waterford 2-0

📉 Waterford’s week worsened with a 3-0 midweek loss to Bohemians, who are quietly flying under the radar but picking up steam.


🎧 Tune in now to catch all the insights, analysis and a look ahead to the next big matchups.
