 Impressive Lebanon Stun The Irish Ireland and Lebanon had a Sunday afternoon encounter in a shootout for who would join New Zealand in the final eight. Ireland already had one win and would secure second spot with a victory before they face New Zealand next weekend, Lebanon are without a win so far but a win today and an almost certain win against Jamaica next weekend would put them into the Quarter Finals.
Lebanon made just one change to the starting side which started against New Zealand, Adam Douehi replaced by Khaled Rajeb after he was dismissed in last weekend's game. Ireland had O´Hagan for Cook in the front row and both sides made a couple of changes on the bench.
The bookies had Ireland as slight favourites, but on paper it promised to be a close game.
