Wales defeat Northern Ireland to stay unbeaten in Celtic Cup

Date:

Welsh Feathers cruised to a comfortable 64-45 win over Northern Ireland Warriors to maintain their winning start to the inaugural Celtic Cup.

Feathers impressed from the outset in Glasgow, leading 17-12 at the end of the first quarter before extending their advantage to 32-18 at half time.

And they were largely untroubled in the second half to claim a second successive win having beaten Scottish Feathers 58-56 in their tournament opener.

Northern Ireland are winless from their two opening fixtures of the competition after losing 54-46 to Zimbabwe Gems in their first group match.

Wales round off the group stage against Zimbabwe Gems on Saturday (14:00 GMT). Scottish Thistles take on Northern Ireland Warriors in their final group fixture at 16:00 GMT on the same day.

The third and fourth place play-off between the bottom two sides gets under way at 12:00 GMT on Sunday.

The top two teams will meet in the final two hours later.
