Clare schoolgirl was among mascots for Euro 2016 semi-final

A 10-year-old Clare schoolgirl was amongst the mascots for tonight's Euro 2016 semi-final between Wales and Portugal.

Kilmaley National School pupil Rose Carter lined up alongside Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo after winning a competition organised by McDonald’s earlier this year.

Her Dad Luke explained: “My wife works in the McDonald’s in Ennis and so we decided to enter Rose in the competition, which selected a few children from all over Europe to be mascots.
