This is special

This is special.

Other than New Zealand’s masterclass of rugby skill, the highlight from tonight’s World Cup quarter final was the Irish people singing in the Millennium Stadium.

The green army invaded the stadium in Cardiff and belted out ‘The Fields of Athenry’ as loud as their voices would allow them, the reaction from everyone was one of pride.

We were all at home watching it on TV and it sounded great, but it sounded 100 times better in the stadium.

Here’s some fan footage that was sent to us by JOE reader Youssuf Sultain Mohammed tonight. It’s so great.
