Our third-level teams are playing an absolute blinder in Russia right now. As for the singing…

The World University Games are continuing in Russia and both our soccer teams have made it through to the quarter-finals, a fantastic achievement.

With JOE-sponsored Tom King in their ranks, the lads had us all on the edge of our seat last night as they went down 1-0 to Mexico but made it through on goal difference to play France on Friday.

The women’s team play Great Britain today in their quarter-final, with the winner likely to face Brazil in the semi-final.

In the aftermath of last night’s progress for the lads, both the men’s and women’s team took to the pitch to celebrate their success thus far.

Great scenes. Let’s hope we see more of them.
