Today, we're (well probably just I, maybe never/ever ) going to be treated to the Final match between Ireland and defending champions The Netherlands in London later today. It's pretty hot out there weather wise predicted high of 29*c.
Yesterday, Ireland beat Spain in a shock penalty shootout to secure the Hockey World Cup final place, Ireland having gone into the tournament ranked second lowest team.

But an accolade was also duly given Ireland's Ayeisha McFerran who was named the goalkeeper of the tournament.
