The reaction from the fans in France – and Michael D – to Ireland’s ‘miracle’

"A night grandas will bore their grandkids about in 50 years… It was electric in there. It still is."

Ireland's 1-0 win over Italy has been hailed as a "miracle" by fans delighted that the Republic's Euro 2016 dream is still alive.

Scenes of euphoria unfolded on the terraces of the Stade Pierre Mauroy in Lille when Robbie Brady headed the ball past the Italian goalkeeper five minutes from the end to send Ireland into the knockout stages.
