Harrington and Brosnan share Sportswoman of the Month award

Alas, the judges were instructed to be a touch more selective.

In the end – and it was severely painful to have to overlook so many deserving names – we opted for a joint award between Harrington and Irish goalkeeper Courtney Brosnan. A feat of that magnitude doesn’t just earn her a place on our monthly roll of honour for the year, it makes her a serious contender to win her second overall award, having collected her first in 2018.

It was no less tricky narrowing our football pick to one player considering the contribution of so many of the Irish squad to their World Cup-qualifying achievement, among them captain Katie McCabe and the ever brilliant midfielder Denise O’Sullivan – not to mention the scorer of that magical goal in Glasgow, Amber Barrett.
