The Irish are everywhere.
New Zealand and France are playing each other in the World Cup quarter final at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff tonight and the Irish have taken over.
The second half of the match got underway to a fierce rendition of The Fields of Athenry being belted out by Irish fans all over the stadium.
Ireland play Argentina in Cardiff tomorrow so the Irish presence in the Welsh city is strong but we didn’t expect them to be so vocal tonight.
People in the stadium and watching home noticed, their reactions are fantastic.
43 mins gone @AllBlacks v France, the Fields of Athenry is heard around the stadium…@RTErugby
