James McClean embracing his family after Ireland's win produced this brilliant photo
WHAT A NIGHT that was.
Ireland went to Cardiff and beat Wales, keeping our chances of World Cup qualification alive on a memorable sporting night.
James McClean got the all important goal in a gritty 1-0 win, and late last night his wife Erin shared the moment he met his family after the final whistle blew:
It’s like a Renaissance painting – with the woman cry-laughing in the background summing up the sheer emotion of the occasion.
RTÉ were there to capture the moment
It drew instant comparisons to *that* Robbie Brady photo against Italy last summer
The lesson? Irish goalscorers should immediately seek out their family in the crowd so the nation can rally around a touching moment.
Erin’s tweet, unsurprisingly, has gone viral given the mood across Ireland last night
The scenes in the dressing were similarly jubilant
