    At the end of every day of schedueling, they played it with music, highlights of all the tournament.

    Best VT RTE have ever made, FACT. They played it at the end of broadcasting every night till 2006 or something, then just stopped. Couldnt find it anywhere....until a few months ago. Still gives me goosebumps :)

    Unreal ad! The music suits it so well! Love the Irish bits even if it is really sad with the close ups of Given and Kilbane.

    Well done RTE

    Call me a bad bastard but I don't think there's anything funnier in that video than the Portuguese manager instructing his team from the touchline with his crutches.
