Summary
Northern Ireland’s darting duo Josh Rock and Daryl Gurney pulled off a heart-stopping 8-7 comeback against Belgium, clawing back from a 5-2 deficit and sealing victory in the final leg. Despite missing a crucial double and admitting they weren’t at their peak, their belief and familiar dynamic—Rock scoring, Gurney finishing—carried them to the quarter-finals, where they’ll face Latvia. Gurney’s defiant “We’re here to kick ass and chew bubble gum” perfectly sums their grit. Meanwhile, the Republic of Ireland also advanced, rallying from a deficit to beat Poland 8-5, and now eye a showdown with Scotland. With both teams buzzing and the tournament heating up, the World Cup of Darts is delivering drama, resilience, and pure darting magic.
