Yeah, Ireland guaranteed to beat Romania, so it comes down to the times of the 4.x400
IRL Women 3:35:77
IRL Men 3:08:83
Hungary must beat those times to guarantee survival
Very exciting overall - every single team is either still in contention for the win or battling relegation.
Ha! Well done the Norwegian steeplechaser - tripped, fell, got back up and took the lead back!
Terrible disaster for the Irish girl in the 100m hurdles - was up and contending for a top three finish, hit a hurdle, came to a dead stop and had to walk in for two points. f
five points of course.
Into the relegation zone...
Irish women's relay improve unexpectedly as Netherlands and Norway both fail to finish!
Or in fact the Norwegians do manage to finish, but might get DQFed because there a rules governing a dropped baton.
They got 5 points even with the DNS, but they are going to be down. Like I say, Poland or France for the win.
Poland have won the men's event in the old European Cup before, but only Germany and Russia have ever won the new format.
