WE owe him one!
Renowned purveyor of Facebook comedy clips, Tadhg Fleming from Ballymac, has come up with a new video showing how Thierry Henry might have looked watching Ireland march on last night.
Obviously taken from Henry’s famous reaction onscreen to the news Brendan Rodgers was sacked by Liverpool last year – mixed in with Robbie Brady’s goal – it’s still a bit of a laugh ahead of Sunday’s encounter.
Let’s hope Thierry is looking this nervous at around 3.50pm on Sunday (see below).
THERE was some scenes in Tralee pubs last night when Ireland scored, at the final whistle and later that night.
The Huddle Bar was batshit central at the final whistle, while Paddy Macs, Hennessy’s and every other watering hole erupted with the famous win for Ireland against the Italians.
It’s all set now for a Super Sunday against the French. Scroll down for videos from the three pubs (to see fan photos from around the pubs click here)….
SOCCER fans will congregate in the Square this summer to cheer on the boys in green, as a big screen will be erected for the Republic Of Ireland’s clash with Belgium in Euro 2016 on Saturday, June 18.
It’s all part of the Tralee 800 celebrations in a festival which takes place from June 17-19 in the town, also incorporating the annual Féile na mBláth.
From 1pm on the Saturday, there’ll be live music to get a party atmosphere going for the match in Bordeaux, which kicks off at 2pm our time.

A big screen was also erected in the Square for an Ireland game during the Euro 2012 championships and this proved a huge success. Organisers hope families come down to create a big match atmosphere.
More details of the Tralee 800 will be announced soon, but expect many musical acts, a medieval display and loads of family fun events during the course of the weekend. All we need now is the weather to be kind!
