CANADA U19 CLOSE OUT NORTHERN IRELAND TOUR WITH LOSS TO ULSTER U19
BELFAST, NORTHERN IRELAND - Canada's U19 Team closed out their three-match Northern Ireland tour on Tuesday with a 31-3 loss to Ulster U19 in Belfast.
Pre-match Quotes from Coach Murten:
"The boys have had a few days off to rest and worked on fixing some of the errors from the first two games. The boys are feeling and looking good. In a short period of time, the staff have seen a great deal of improvement both on, and off the field. Tonight's game is about being direct and winning the contact point, then looking to play with some width. Defensively, in the last game we did well in spells, tonight we need to defend with intensity and accuracy for the entire game"
