VIDEO: It’s safe to say that Martin is Derry’s favourite O’Neill – even more than Michael

Unbelievable scenes

Conan Doherty

It was some night for Ireland as a whole.

The north qualified for their first major tournament in what will be 30 years and the Republic – well, they only went and beat the world champions.

But they weren’t sitting on the fence in Derry as St. Columb’s Hall in the city centre came to a standstill to tune in to the action in Dublin.

And it’s easy to see that they enjoyed Shane Long’s unbelievable strike as the country went and beat Germany 1-0.

Good night all round.
