LOIWomen Podcast: Athlone Close In, Waterford Strike & Galway Win Thriller – S6 E33
Episode 33
Thursday, 3 September, 2026
Breifne Earley and Aaron Clarke (@LetsTalkLOIW) are back to break down another weekend of SSE Airtricity League Women's Premier Division action as the season moves towards its decisive stages. Athlone Town's pursuit of a third consecutive league title continues to gather momentum after another significant victory, this time coming away to Shamrock Rovers. The champions left Tallaght with a 2-1 victory and another precious three points as they continue to put themselves in control of the destination of the league trophy. There was a big result at the Showgrounds too. Sligo Rovers' excellent run of form was halted by Waterford, who travelled north and produced an impressive 2-1 victory. Breifne and Aaron look at a result that once again demonstrates just how competitive the league has become. Galway United were made to work for all three points against Cork City. Five goals and plenty of drama eventually produced a 3-2 Galway victory as they attempt to keep themselves involved at the business end of the table. Peamount United also enjoyed an excellent afternoon on the road, putting three unanswered goals past DLR Waves, while Treaty United secured another important result with a 1-0 victory over Bohemians at the Markets Field. The lads discuss what all five results tell us about the current state of the league, the title picture and the teams building momentum as we enter the closing stages of the campaign. Finally, the show turns to Tolka Park and a fascinating meeting between Shelbourne and the University of North Carolina. With UNC in Dublin around the Aer Lingus College Football Classic, the game provided a rare opportunity to see one of American college soccer's most famous programmes take on League of Ireland opposition. Breifne and Aaron look back at the occasion, the football on display and what can be learned from bringing the NCAA and League of Ireland women's games together.
