RTÉ secures rights to show France match

RTÉ will be showing the second leg of the Republic of Ireland's World Cup playoff in Paris tomorrow, the station has confirmed.

The parties had been deadlocked on a fee for the television and radio rights, and it had been feared that tomorrow night's second leg in the Stade de France might not be available to Irish viewers.

However the State broadcaster said it had secured the rights this morning, but refused to say how much it paid to show the game.

It will be covered on television, radio and online.
