Willie Faloon’s team were due to play Australia at 1pm Irish time today.
THE IRELAND U20s have advanced to the semi-finals at the World U20 Championships in South Africa after their final pool match was cancelled due to adverse weather conditions.
Yet heavy rainfall and strong winds saw kick-off initially delayed, with Ireland warming up in the car park in an effort to preserve the playing surface. The game did not kick-off as scheduled and shortly after the fixture was due to start, it was confirmed the match would be unable to go ahead in the interest of player safety.
