Ireland 5 Canada 6

Alan O’Leary (Fourth, Skip)
Andrew Dauphinee (Third, Vice-Skip)
Danny Christianson (Second)
Harold McCarthy (Lead)

Gutsy, classy display from Ireland  – and ultimately heartbreaking – to lose at an extra end.

Two defeats mean the boys will have to get the better of  Italy and Scotland in their last two section games.

Why is someone called O’Leary playing for Canada anyway?

Next game is against Italy tomorrow (Wed) at 8pm Rusia Time (6pm UK time).
