Fanzone to be set up for Ireland v France

For those of us not lucky enough to make it to the Euros, here's the next best thing.

Dublin City Council have announced that they will be turning Smithfield Square into a fanzone for Sunday's game.
A large screen will be set up in the square for fans to enjoy the atmosphere of the French clash. Robbie Brady kept Ireland's Euro dreams alive last night with a wonderful header in the 85th minute and we'll be hoping that the boys in green can recreate that magic this weekend. If Ireland were to pull off a David style victory over the host nation, they would be facing the winner of the England Iceland draw.

Labour councillor Rebecca Moynihan confirmed the news on Twitter earlier.

Just got word that @DubCityCouncil have agreed to big screen fanzone for #IREvFRA on Sunday in Smithfield #COYBIG #EURO2016
