Winners of the M&M’s Challenge, a Pro Evolution Soccer tournament, were revealed today in Dublin.
The organisers have said that 300 players played in what they called the Ireland's largest ever football game tournament.
Recently at the Xbox Live Gaming Centre, 32 finalists played it out for six hours over 200 matches resulting in a final between Michael Stankard and Leon Gallagher.
Stankard (pictured above) from Tallaght won the match, and selected to give new kit for 15 players to his two local football clubs Boca Seniors and St Maelruans. He also won a projector with screen, Xbox 360, games and Reebok sportswear.
Runner-up Leon Gallagher won a 26" HD television, an Xbox 360, as well as Reebok sports gear for himself, and kit for the Kildare County Under 21s.
Brand manager at M&M’s, Sarah Keenaghan, said “It has been a huge success and we congratulate all those involved”.
“Congratulations to both Michael & Leon for winning the tournament and everyone who played in the tournament" added Tony Murray, MD at the Xbox Live Gaming Centre, "The M&M’s Challenge 2007 was a showcase what we can do with the Xbox Live Gaming Centre”.
