James McClean celebrating with his family after the game is just perfect

What a moment.

It shows how much it means to him…

James McClean always wears his heart on his sleeve. He give 100% every time he pulls on the Irish jersey. He’s the man you always want on your team coming into a crunch game.

And boy, did he deliver with a peach of a goal last night.

Just take a moment and soak it in again…

Great work from Jeff Hendrick on the wing, and outrageous step over from Harry Arter, and a beautiful finish on his weaker right foot from that man, James McClean.

We’re not on the plane to Russia just yet, we’ve still got a qualifier to face. But a massive step was taken with the result on Monday night, and James McClean knew it.

It was reminiscent of Robbie Brady at the Euros last year.

Look at what it means to his family…
