Glentoran Women 1 - 0 Crusaders Strikers
Glentoran edged out Crusaders Strikers 1-0 at The Oval last night as Northern Ireland international Kerry Beattie scored the only goal of the game in the 64th minute.
The first half was a cagey affair of few chances, with Glentoran enjoying the lion’s share of possession but struggling to break down a resolute Crues defence.
Beattie finally broke the deadlock for the Glens almost midway through the second half as she got behind the visitor’s back line before calmly slotting home into the corner.
New full time deals for Moko and Elliott

Already a Glentoran Great, his legendary status is rapidly approaching as he leads the team into what promises to be a great era in East Belfast.
