Cork City scrapped to a hard-earned win at Limerick to move up to fourth in he Women's National League on Sunday.
In-form Christina Dring fizzed home a excellent half-volley in the 81st minute to settle a tight and cagey contest at Fairgreen, home of local junior side Fairview Rangers.
It's Cork's third victory in a row and leaves them a point off third-placed Shelbourne.
Shels fell to a 2-0 loss against table-toppers Peamount United on Saturday.
Aine O’Gorman and Karen Duggan gave Peamount a crucial three points and kept them ahead of Wexford Youths on goal difference, albeit with a game in hand.
