So thats the end of the first game of the u-19 world cup. If the other 9 games are as exciting as this i dont know how we will get to the end!

The best knock of the day was from Adam Coughlan and he has just been named man of the match.

So that just leaves me to say thank you for following my commentary today and i hope that you join me, Justin Smyth for another exciting game tomorrow!

Goodnight from Clontarf in Dublin.
