Northern Ireland Women's Under 19s claim 6-0 win over Moldova in Euro qualifier

Northern Ireland Women's Under 19s cruised to an emphatic 6-0 victory over Moldova on Saturday evening in their latest Euro 2020 qualifier.

Alfie Wylie's side proved their class as they bagged another impressive win at the Ballymena Showgrounds.

It was the second game of a mini-tournament which is part of a qualifying round for the 2020 UEFA European Women’s Under-19 Championship.

Northern Ireland kicked off their campaign with a 1-0 win over Wales in midweek, and continued that with a comfortable win over Moldova.

Goals from Alex Collighan and Caitlin McGinn gave Northern Ireland a 2-0 lead at the break.

Jessica Rea then made it 3-0 before Rebecca McKenna added the fourth.

Kelsie Burrows made it 5-0 with 10 minutes remaining and Toni Leigh Finnegan wrapped up the scoring with the sixth goal late on.

The third and final match day in Qualifying Group 5 is Tuesday (October 8) with Northern Ireland facing Norway at Seaview (2pm).

The top two sides in 12 groups plus the four third-placed teams with the best record against the top two in their section will go into an elite round draw on November 21, with the elite round games in spring 2020.

Seven teams will eventually join hosts Georgia in the finals in July 2020.
