Irish fans assemble! Use the #IRL to get the Irish flag on the Eiffel Tower tonight

Show your support for the boys in green.

Ireland are taking on Sweden this evening  and what better way to celebrate our impending 9-0 victory than by having the Irish tricolor emblazoned on the Eiffel Tower?

Well, you can play a role in making that happen.

Each day, fans must vote for their favourite team playing that day by using the hashtag of the team on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.

So in our case, we’re voting for Ireland, so we’ll use the #IRL to vote for Martin O’Neill’s men.

The voting goes on until 8:30pm our time this evening and if Ireland get the most votes, we’ll see the Irish flag on the Eiffel Tower as part of a lightshow ten minutes after the last game this evening.

This is how the voting is going as of 10am this morning.
