IRELAND RETURNED TO winning ways with a second-half salvo in Greece which got their Nations League campaign back on track.

Marissa Sheva, Kyra Carusa, Jessie Stapleton and Amber Barrett were on target in a much-improved second period which ensured a Greek tragedy would not follow the recent Slovenia shocker. Katie McCabe was initially held in reserve due to a calf strain, but helped change the game as Carla Ward’s side bounced back in sunny Crete.

The 42′s award-winning team produces original content that you won’t find anywhere else: on GAA, League of Ireland, women’s sport and boxing, as well as our game-changing rugby coverage, all with an Irish eye.
