There was no medal glory for Ireland on the final day of the European Aquatics Championships in Belgrade. Though, Nathan Wiffen did come close.

Ireland go home from the championships with three medals, two won by the Olympics-bound Danielle Hill. The 24-year-old won gold in the 50m backstroke on Thursday and silver in the 100m backstroke on Saturday.
