This almost brings a tear to the eye.
Northern Ireland have announced their squad for Euro 2016… and man, do they mean business.
This summer in France will be Michael O’Neill’s men’s inaugural participation at the European Championships and they’ve marked the special occasion by naming their squad in wonderfully passionate and dramatic fashion.
The clip sees the names of each player stoically announced, set to the backdrop of stunning scenery.
It’s proper Game of Thrones stuff…
