GBR Men 0 Japan Men 1
Men finish 4th place

Another result which is an improvement on last Universiade's placing. Just unlucky to miss out to winning a medal. Congratulations to all.
Thank you for all your support. The teams have both qualified automatically for next Universiade which is in 2011, China.
