Atalanta Can End 61-Year Wait For Trophy In Europa League Final
Atalanta have a date with history and Bayer Leverkusen on Wednesday when the Italians aim to become the first team to beat the new German champions this season and win their first ever European final. Gian Piero Gasperini's side have in the Dublin Europa League final another shot at winning a first trophy in 61 years after losing the Italian Cup final against Juventus last week. The traditionally small club from Bergamo travel to Ireland in high spirits after securing a spot in next season's revamped Champions League. Star forwards Charles De Ketelaere and Gianluca Scamacca secured a 2-0 win at Lecce on Saturday which guaranteed Atalanta at least fifth spot in Serie A and led to a hero's welcome from supporters after they returned from Italy's extreme south.

Ireland claim dramatic one-run victory over the Netherlands in pre-World Cup campaign
Holywood's Mark Adair starred with the bat then just about held his nerve with the ball as Ireland claimed a thrilling one-run win over the Netherlands at The Hague. In the second match of the T20 Tri-Nations series, also involving Scotland, Ireland stumbled to 83 for six in the 14th over, but Adair thumped seven fours and two sixes in his 49 off just 24 balls. While he fell lbw in the final over to Tim Pringle, who was the pick of the hosts' attack with three for 32, his efforts plus Lorcan Tucker’s 40 off 30 balls formed the backbone of Ireland’s 150 for eight. The Netherlands reached 69 for two at halfway but were unusually becalmed in the middle period and went without a boundary from the end of the ninth over until the end of the 14th. Fionn Hand was brilliant with three for 18, while Curtis Campher chipped in with two for 33 as Adair, who took the wicket of Netherlands captain Scott Edwards, was left to defend 20 from the last over.
