Women's Fai Cup wrap: Shelbourne and Athlone Town advance
Kate Mooney scored a late winner as holders Shelbourne edged past Galway United in their Sports Direct Women's FAI Cup first-round clash on Saturday. The striker, who scored a hat-trick in Shels' league win over Sligo Rovers last week, found in the 89th minute to send the north Dublin side past Phil Trill's westerners by a 2-1 scoreline at Tolka Park. Mooney's fellow forward Mackenzie Anthony had given Shelbourne the lead shortly after half-time but Amanda Smith levelled for Galway just before the hour mark, with the game remaining locked at one-goal apiece until the late winner. SSE Airtricity Women's Premier Division leaders Athlone Town are also through to the second round after cruising past non-league Terenure Rangers by a 6-0 margin. Captain Izzy Groves found the net twice for the midlanders, including the opener, while Roisin Molloy, Kelly Brady, Natalie McNally and Hannah Waesch rounded off the scoring for an Athlone side who will face Cardiff City in the Champions League qualifiers next month. Treaty United were also free-scoring as they hit eight goals on the way to easily accounting for Ferns United 8-0. Ciaran Breslin was on the double in the first half before Aibhlinn Cotter's free-kick gave Treaty a three-goal advantage at the break. Kate Lee came on the break and quickly added a fourth with Sirena Celebrini, Amy Tierney and Cotter, again, on target before Hayley Nolan turned into her own net late on. DLR Waves edged a thriller with Sligo Rovers, the away side winning 3-2. Goals either side of the break from Keelin Dodd, a powerful header, and Amber Cosgrove had DLR Waves two ahead, before Mairead McIntyre showed good composure in the box to halve the deficit in the 62nd minute. It was Dodd though who secured their passage with an 87th minute penalty with Anna McDaniel striking late on in reply for Sligo. Shamrock Rovers came from behind to overcome Premier Division newcomers Waterford 3-1 at Tallaght Stadium. Olivia Shannon had given Waterford the lead but Lauren Walsh's own goal saw both sides go in level at the break. However, it was the Hoops who would push on in the second half as Anna Butler and Maria Reynolds sent Rovers through.

The Insider: How to display stuff
There's an art to arranging one's things to look pleasing, rather than cluttered and claustrophobia-inducing. Yet, too much order can appear contrived and create a visual sense of unease. So how does one get the balance right? Three is the magic number "The key to displaying collections is subtlety," says Kate Mooney, founder of Occa-Home. Fake thrown-together chic by "grouping in odd numbers of threes or fives and varying heights and textures". Low rider Terence Conran's brilliant The House Book (Mitchell Beazley) is tip-tastic: on table-tops, he suggests keeping objects low, "like a form of bas-relief" rather than something to crane necks over. For ease of dusting, "contain it on a tray". A collection of attractive bottles, meanwhile, "looks best when light can shine through them". All that glitters Hang jewellery from a horizontal row of thin nails straight as a rod (hello, spirit level) for a striking effect. Case the joint Glass domes somehow lend authority to the objects encased beneath. For a contemporary twist, try a Muji upturned acrylic DVD box (£6.95) over something old to contrast with its sleek, sharp edges. Mine houses antique dolls. Hang up Peg cool postcards from string and hang like bunting. Off the wall Follow the stylish Saltoun Supper Club's approach to DIY art and pin at least eight small, cherished objects – such as saucers, model chairs, paper butterflies – in a neat, well-spaced grid to a blank wall.
