We have some guest reporters for this blog: Many thanks to Brian and James from Rang a Sé for this fantastic report on all the soccer madness in Scoil Mhuire.
Scoil Mhuire World Cup, 10 teams competing for the title. Portagual were the favourites to
win the world cup. Netherlands and Argentina lost without winning a game. They didn't
score, but they played their hearts out. Eight people from 6 th class were asked to ref the
games. Spain vs Brazil was the first quarter finals and it ended in a draw. Then it went to
penalties and Dillion Behan pinged in a penalty in top corner and everyone was jumping in
the air with excitment, Brazil had won. Portugal vs France was the second quarter final, it
was a tense match but France went through by two nil. That meant that the first semi-final
was Portugal vs Brazil. Then came the other quarter finals Uruguay vs Belgium. It went to
penalties and then Uruguay won it was very intense.
Then came the other quarter final England vs Germany, it was a draw so it went to penalties and Germany won. Then came the semi-finals. The first one was Brazil vs Portugal. It went to penalties and Conor Kelleher made an outstanding save to put Portugal through to the final. Next was the other semi-final
Germany vs Uruguay it went to penalties Josh Hegarty placed a penalty bottom corner but
Uruguay scored their penalty so it had to go to another round of penalties. Uraguay scored
and Germanys penalty hit the post so that sent Uraguay through to the final against
Portugual.Brian was the reffere for the final Ryan Murphy score a brilliant goal and then
Daniel scored for Uragauy. Then came half time Portagual got a penalty and Fionn stepped
up and placed it in the corner and the score was 2-1 to Uraguay it stayed that way for the
rest of the match so Uraguay won they were outstanding the whole school celebrated with
them. Then came the awards Lucy won best captain Brian won best referee and then
