After a tournament-long shut-out, it's little wonder Ireland's keeper, Luke O'Shea, was named the 2014 Nations Cup MVP.
O'Shea's heroics in net throughout the tournament's three days was one of the main reasons the Eire boys lifted the coveted trophy with a late Tiernan King winner - the only goal of the final - against the favoured Indian team.
Further cementing the Irish back-line dominance was Stu Walters, who picked up the tournament's Best Defender title.
And whether you call it the luck of the Irish or not, the champions only managed to squeak through the group stages thanks to a "cold" penalty shoot-out with Germany, with none of the tournament's tie-breakers able to separate the sides.
Desmond Tachie of Africa won the tournament's Golden Boot.
In the men's over-30s section, Portugal lifted the crown with a 1-0 win over Italy, while India prevailed 2-0 over rivals Fiji in the men's over-38s.
In the men's over-45s, Fiji beat Ireland 2-0, while Scotland brushed the Chinese aside with a 3-0 win in the over-52 men's section.
The women's final was contested by the Caribbeans and the Italians, with the former cruising to a 3-1 win. The Caribbean's Alyssa Graham lifted the women's MVP accolade.
