VIDEO: People were united in their love for Two Shades of Green on RTÉ
We got to relive some incredible memories.
One of the television highlights of the Christmas period, RTÉ's look back at Euro 2016 from the perspective of both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland teams received unanimous praise from those who watched it.
This sequence alone would have brought a tear to the eye of any Irish supporter lucky enough to have been in Lille to see Robbie Brady grab a late, glorious winner over Italy to secure his side's place in the knockout stages.
Both sides made it through to the last 16 - Martin O'Neill's side losing to hosts France, with Northern Ireland exiting to Wales - and the documentary brought back memories of one Irish sport's truly great tournaments.
Being at the stadium in Lille to see Robbie Brady's header will stay with me for my whole life. Some scenes #TwoShadesOfGreen
