An absolutely classic for the Gold medal between France & England in the U13s which went down to the last match with England winning 3-2, to win the tie overall 3-2. It couldn’t have been closer. For Ireland they played Wales in the last match for the bronze medal. but Wales were too strong who won the tie 5-0 so Ireland finished 4th overall. Well done to all the players for their sportsmanship in a super contest.
