Game 1 result
England 99s have lost out to Ireland 12-11 (2-2, 2-4, 2-3, 6-2) in a very tight opening match at the North Sea Cup in Aberdeen.
England put in a fantastic performance and led against the senior Ireland team for most of the match but a strong final quarter for Ireland edged them in front with around a minute remaining.
Coach Ian MacCallum commented after the match: “It was a disappointing end to the game for us, after all the hard work to get into the lead, we ran out of energy and mistakes started to creep in. We have the next game against Wales later today to put things right.”
