Ireland 0-0 Spain

20 Jan 2014

Ireland played Spain in their penultimate match in this series of four, in a game that ended in a scoreless draw.

Ireland looked the most threatening throughout the match in a game that was devoid of any penalty corners. Ireland's Deidre Duke went close in the first 35 intercepting a Spanish outlet creating a one on one but the Keeper for Spain pulled off a good save keeping it 0-0.

The only goal chances in the second half came from the girls in green the best from Katie Mullan who went close with a reverse stick strike. Ireland's outfield players made life somewhat easy for Emma Gray in goals who did not get a touch in the second half and with that the match closed out 0-0.

The sides are now level with a win each and a draw (Match 1: Ireland 2-3 Spain; Match 2: Ireland 4-2 Spain; Match 3: Ireland 0-0 Spain).

There is all to play for in the fourth and final game taking place at 10.30 Irish time tomorrow.

Ireland's men will play their third and final match at 2.30 tomorrow against Spain before both sides return to Ireland from this warm weather training camp on Thursday 16th January.
