Jon Walters can beat up Chuck Norris.
Ireland will be up against some strong teams at Euro 2016 as Belgium, Italy and Sweden bid to get the upper hand on Martin O’Neill’s men in France but the boys in green have already proven that they’re more than capable of delivering a killer-blow when backed into a corner, just ask Germany.
Aside from Shane Long’s memorable rocket past Manuel Neuer, the 1-0 win against the world champions was filled with memorable moments but one incident still stands out in the minds of Irish fans . Who else remembers Jon ‘The Beast’ Walters carrying the ball into the corner during the final stages of the match?
With the Germans chasing a one goal deficit, the Stoke City man bought some valuable time by physically dominating two German defenders as they desperately tried to retrieve possession.
Walters is currently recovering from surgery but he’ll definitely be a huge favourite with the Irish fans in France this summer. Take a look.
