‘I’m So Proud Of Them’ – Andy Farrell On The Ireland Under-20s

Ireland head coach Andy Farrell says the Ireland Under-20s (sponsored by PwC) have inspired a nation through their performances on the pitch and the way in which they have dealt with adversity off it.

Richie Murphy’s young side are preparing to face familiar rivals France in tonight’s World Rugby U-20 Championship final in Cape Town (kick-off 6pm Irish time).

Speaking to Irish Rugby TV from the IRFU High Performance Centre, Farrell said he is ‘proud’ of the Ireland U-20s as they have negotiated their way through the campaign, beating Australia, Fiji and hosts South Africa en route to the decider.
