Pic: Irish J1 students witness and snap the hilarious trolling of Ashley Cole by Francesco Totti

Francesco Totti brilliantly lampooned Ashley Cole in a team picture taken in Rome and of course, there were Irish people there to witness it.

The original awkward picture of Ashley Cole in the team photo which inspired the prank from Totti was well documented and formed the basis for some superb memes as we wrote about here. The Totti trolling was rightfully applauded in all quarters, but we were sent this tweet which shows a group of Irish people in Rome on a J1 road-trip showing that they were there for the event.

A couple of selfies with the man himself Ashley Cole and a non too shabby effort with the great Daniele De Rossi. Super work lads, super work indeed.
