WATCH: Gritty Treaty Utd secure precious point in Women's National League

TREATY United women's side produced a battling display to secure an exciting 3-3 draw with Athlone Town in the Women's National League at Athlone Town Stadium on Saturday night.

Neither side deserved to lose this thrilling game as the momentum swung back & forth throughout the 90+4 minutes at the Midlands venue.

The result was a timely boost for Niall Connolly's Treaty side which had suffered a disappointing 6-2 defeat to Bohemians in their opening WNL fixture a week earlier.

Treaty Utd led Saturday night's thrilling contest with Athlone Town 3-2 at half-time.

The Horgan sisters starred for Treaty United, with Rebecca getting them going on 15 minutes before Aoife found the back of the net three minutes later and then Rebecca got a second on 36 minutes.

Athlone had actually started the better of the two teams with Mo Nerney firing in after 11 minutes. Treaty then scored then twice before Emma Donohoe pulled one back and they conceded again.
