THIS IS TURNING out to be the most fascinating title race ever in the WNL with todayโs results adding further intrigue to an already tense affair.
In short, four teams are separated by three points. Wexford still lead the way on 52 points, one clear of Shelbourne, with Peamount and fourth-placed Athlone both on 49 points.
At one stage today, it looked like it would pan out differently after Wexford took an early lead in Athlone while Shelbourne were being held by Cork City with just two minutes remaining.

Things change quickly in football, though. There would be no win on the road for Wexford after Kellie Brennan fired an unstoppable shot into their net for Athlone before Gillian Keenan got a late header to help Athlone record a 2-1 win.
They now have dreams of a double.
Shels are happy to just be a point off the top following their late win over Cork City โ Megan Smyth-Lynch fired a brilliant lobbed shot from 25 yards with 88 minutes on the clock.
Stephanie Roche was the Peamount hero as she scored a 30th minute penalty which was enough to secure the points against Bohemians. In the other game of the day, DLR Waves beat Galway 3-2. Sligo play Treaty tomorrow.

@John Connolly: This is Champions league football. But then what would your shower know about it . Ole getting his excuses in early complaining about the pitch. Is he afraid the bus will get stuck
@John Connolly: theyโre experts at conceding goals John and as a united fan trolling on a Liverpool article you should know that pal

@Gareth Keenan: somewhat, yes
@John Connolly: Not as bad as getting beat 2-1 by the mighty Crystal Palace.
You canโt beat Champions league nights in Anfield.
@stephen darling: Iโm just not able
Liverpool very sporting of them to let Salzburg back into match, goes to show what a quality club they are, but to be fair they need to push on now and win 5_3
When are teams going to learn that Liverpool dont play through the middle but create 95% of there changes from the wings! The amount of teams that set up narrow against Liverpool hoping they will somehow bottle them up through the centre and frustrate them is ridiculousโฆLiverpool could get 5+ in this!!!
@Ottomaaan: 5-3????
Gomez has been absolutely dreadful
Light work
