IRISH FANS HAVE been descending on masse upon Lyon ahead of the match against France tomorrow, and all the pubs are ensuring they’re well stocked for their arrival.

Johnny’s Kitchen, an Irish bar in the middle of the city, have been sharing their preparations on their Facebook page:

Ready, steady… BEER!

Beer kegs, stretching all the way down the street out of sight. Just what we like to see.

By all accounts, the Irish are already settling right in:
