Eamon Dunphy reveals his spirituality in Gay Byrne interview

He’s known as the hard-living, sharp-tongued soccer pundit who’s always ready to put the boot in.

But Eamon Dunphy has revealed that behind his public image he’s a very spiritual person who prays to God every night.

The outspoken broadcaster was brought up in a deeply religious and impoverished household in Drumcondra, north Dublin, where attending Mass and saying the Rosary were part of his daily ritual.
