WATCH: It looks like Paul O’Connell recovered quickly against France, dancing in crowd with pint

As dopplegangers go, this is crazy.

Paul O'Connell has given the entire country a fright after being stretchered off injured against France. The Ireland captain was withdrawn just before half time and, from initial reports, it doesn't look particularly good for the Munster man as the country prepare for a quarter final clash. But we'll take a light-hearted laugh wherever we can and, let's face it, only Paul O'Connell could recover this quickly as it looked like he did during the France game. Just moments after being substituted, it looked for all the world that POC was dancing in the stands, pint in hand, sunglasses on head, celebrating Rob Kearney's try. And we'll say this anyway, no-one has 100 per cent clarified that it wasn't him... https://twitter.com/Robbie__Reid/status/653254390267150336
