SEVENTH HEAVEN FOR CHAMPIONS REDS
Cliftonville Ladies hit seven goals without reply past Mid Ulster Ladies at Solitude to continue their 100% start to their title defence.
Fionnula Morgan opened the scoring after eight minutes when she beat the offside trap to fire home from 25 yards.
Caitlin McGuinness added a second after half-an-hour when she was played through by sister Kirsty, with the Reds going further in front soon after through Mid Ulster defender Niamh O'Donnell who deflected the ball into her own net whilst attempting to deal with Marissa Callaghan's cross.
Morgan doubled her tally with a header just before the hour, to be followed soon after by a second for Caitlin McGuinness after Kirsty's cross had come back off an upright.
The Reds furthered their advantage with two late goals.
Abbie Magee added number six from inside the box before Hannah Doherty wrapped things up moments later.
