If this doesn’t get you in the mood for Euro 2016, nothing will.

The legend that is Christy Moore performed on The Late Late Show on Friday night, and Joxer Goes To Stuttgart did not fail to get the get crowd going.

A song that was made famous by Ireland’s first ever appearance at a major finals – the 1988 European Championships in the then West Germany – this will whet the appetite nicely for what we hope will be a brilliant summer in France.

Listen for the audience’s reaction to the famous line, ‘…until Ray Houghton got the ball and stuck it in the net!’

Hon Ireland!
