Game on.

With Ireland currently ranked as the number one team in the entire world and Shane Ross backing the boys in green to win the World Cup, we're definitely going to triumph, right? Whether you apply a glass half-full or half-empty approach to this month's events in Japan, you're probably going to keep an eye on things. One method of doing so sounds considerably more box office than just commandeering the couch at key times, as Omniplex cinemas will host screenings of Irish matches in select locations. What's more, it's free. Yep, free admission tickets will be available at the box office for each match on a first-come, first-serve basis. Be advised, however, that there is an €11 breakfast pre-book option that includes a ticket, so it's all very much subject to availability. Said breakfast option can be booked online at the official Omniplex website. Participating cinemas include Cork, Limerick, Rathmines in Dublin and Dundonald in Belfast. The all-important dates and times for Ireland's Group Stage World Cup matches are: Ireland V Scotland - Sunday 22 September  Doors: 8am | Kick Off: 8:45am Ireland V Japan - Saturday 28 September  Doors: 7:30am | Kick Off: 8:15am Ireland V Russia – Thursday 3 October  Doors: 10:30am | Kick Off: 11:15am  Ireland V Samoa - Saturday 12 October  Doors: 11:00am | Kick Off: 11:45am
