Sarsfields GAA Club has decided not to lodge any further appeal regarding the abandoned Whitewater Shopping Centre U23 football quarter final..

The quarter final against Naas was level at full-time.

The Sash manager was red carded in the first half but wanted to be re-admitted for extra time, which the referee turned down.

Following some verbal exchanges between a club official and the referee, the latter abandoned the game, without extra time being played

Sarsfield’s initial appeals to Kildare GAA were unsuccessful.  They, then, took their case to Leinster Council who turned it down last night.

Naas will now play Clane in the semi-final, with the winners playing Maynooth in the final.

====

In the final round of Group F fixtures at the World Cup.

Croatia 0 Belgium 0.

Morocco lead Canada by 2-goals to 1.

Morocco are through as group winners with Croatia runners-up and Belgium out.

===

Germany are looking to avoid back-to-back group stage exits tonight.

Only a win will do for them against Costa Rica, while they also need Spain to beat Japan.

Japan also need a victory, but a draw could be enough if Germany and Costa Rica finish level.

Ireland Hockey have finished top of their pool at the Men’s Nations Cup, with a 100 per cent record.

Shane O’Donoghue scored the only goal of the game as Ireland beat South Africa this afternoon.

Ireland will play Malaysia in the semi final on Saturday.
