As if an All-Ireland semi-final hurling replay and the final round of the All-Ireland quarter-final group stages wasn’t enough to keep you busy, the Irish women’s hockey team decided to go ahead and put themselves into a World Cup final.
A penalty shootout win over Spain (finally) put Graham Shaw’s side into the final where Ireland will play the winner of Australia and the Netherlands in the other semi-final on Sunday.
Ireland’s win has set up a huge day of sport with the All-Ireland U20 final between Kildare and Mayo and the Community Shield between Chelsea and Manchester City also adding to what should be a fantastic day of sport.
