VIDEO: Fans hope to lift Ireland to victory

The kick-out from Darren Randolph parted the German sea for Shane Long’s miracle — and now comes the exodus.

Tens of thousands of Irish sports fans are expected to flock to Wales and Poland as the nation’s rugby and soccer teams prepare for tomorrow’s decisive clashes with France and Poland respectively.

Dublin Airport said Ireland’s Rugby World Cup Pool D decider led to a total of 80 flights being added to accommodate almost 11,000 supporters heading to Cardiff, while thousands more are expected to fly into Warsaw for the final game in the Republic of Ireland’s Euro 2016 qualifying campaign.
