Charlie O'Shea and Sean Walsh both scored a hat-trick of tries as Ireland concluded the Junior World Championships pool stage with a 73-22 win over the United States in Tbilisi.
Munster fly-half O'Shea and Connacht centre Walsh combined for six of Ireland's 11 tries, with Christopher Barrett, Robert Carney, Adam Cooper, Daniel Ryan and Jack Deegan also on target.
Green also landed nine conversions as Andrew Browne's side - who led 45-3 at the break - responded to defeats by England and Argentina in emphatic fashion.
Finnian Love, Joseph Sarlkees and Leo Keesler-Venables scored second-half tries for the USA, who were thumped by Argentina and England in their first two games.
Ireland, however, finished the game with 14 men when winger Charlie Moloney received a 20-minute red card following an aerial collision.
The Irish finish third in Pool C and move into the ninth-place semi-finals.
England edged past Argentina 40-38 later on Tuesday to clinch top spot and will advance to the final four, with the South Americans progressing to the fifth-place semi-final bracket.
