Team manager Gillian McDarby described the absence of Shannon Houston as a ‘massive blow’, with Ireland’s inspirational captain sidelined by a late injury.

Claire Keohane donned the number 1 jersey instead and Nicole Cronin took on the captaincy, the two players leading by example throughout the Pool C campaign.

Ireland and Portugal had met in the Series’ first leg in Moscow last weekend with the Portuguese gaining a 10 7 win,

Ireland made early headway and Nikki Caughey ran in a third minute try to get her side off the mark in humid conditions.

Amee Leigh Murphy Crowe was involved twice as she took the ball into contact and it was her well judged offload that allowed the supporting Caughey to slip through along the right touchline and score an unconverted effort,

Hannah Tyrrell carried strongly and Caughey and Murphy Crowe were heavily involved as the girls in green attempted to add to their lead.

But, gradually,

Crucially though,

Correia sent a penalty attempt wide early in the second half before a good passing move and quick ruck ball led to a second Portuguese try scored by Christine Ramos in the left corner.

That left Ireland 12 5 behind and Jon Skurr’s charges were staring at an opening defeat,

Unfortunately, they failed to convert their pressure into points as Siobhan Barrett was held up close to the whitewash after a slashing break from Cronin and good follow up work from Murphy Crowe and Barrett.

Ireland then fell to a disappointing 33 5 loss in their second outing in Brive as the Netherlands pulled clear in the second half, proving clinical with ball in hand and controlling the breakdown.

The busy Keohane made an initial break and passed to an ever willing Murphy Crowe who took Ireland over halfway,

The Irish effort was typified by tigerish scrum half Cronin who got back to bring down Kelly van Harskamp after the Dutch danger woman had cut inside Martina McCarthy,

Further good tackle from Cronin and Megan Williams forced a knock on, however the Netherlands pounced for their first try through Annemarije van Rossum, just moments later, with Lorraine Laros converting for 7 0.

Laros then converted her own try as her weaving run took her past Cronin and Williams to score in the left corner,

The girls in green managed to hit back before half time. Impressive footwork from Cronin got them on the front foot and although Susan Vaughan was hammered in a tackle near the corner flag, Keohane scooped up the available ball to notch an encouraging five pointer.

But the Dutch went up through the gears in the second period, continually probing from quick tap penalties. Their third try was scored by van Harskamp who nipped in between two defenders to dot down with Laros converting.

Ireland lacked support at times when taking the ball into contact and could not get their offloads away,

Keohane provided some late spark for the Irish with a run from her own half,
