Hopefully this is the first Irish victory over the Belgians this weekend.

The Irish fans in France are buzzing ahead of the crucial Euro 2016 encounter with Belgium on Saturday, and it seems that our rivals are just as pumped up, if this clip is anything to go by. Both sets of fans congregated at le Bistrot des Quinconces in Bordeaux, where JOE's craic correspondents Paddy McKenna and Eoghan Doherty were on hand to record an Irish and Belgian sing-off, Run-D.M.C.-style. The Belgians gave our fans' 'Fields of Athenry' a good game, but we reckon that there's only one winner here. https://youtu.be/txPi8fjJLzk And here they are again, making friends... https://twitter.com/PaddyMcKenna/status/743842809233481728 COYBIG!
