Nobody wants to miss a second of the Republic of Ireland's European adventure.

Martin O'Neill, Roy Keane and their 23 warriors are not quite prepared to call time on their stay in France as Robbie Brady's late winner fired Ireland into the last 16 where a date with hosts, and tournament favourites, France awaits. If anything's to be learned from Brady's header at the death, and the subsequent celebrations, it's that this team is must-see television. Robbie Brady celebrates with his girlfriend Kerrie Harris and supporters after the game 22/6/2016 And the GAA have acquiesced to that fact by deferring the pair of Leinster Senior Football Championship semi-finals in Croke Park on Sunday. Ireland take on Didier Deschamps' side in Lyon at 2pm on Sunday and, to accommodate that huge occasion in Irish sport, Dublin's clash with Meath and Kildare's tie against Westmeath have been pushed back to later in the afternoon. Westmeath v Kildare will now take place at the later time of 4.15pm and throw-in for Dublin v Meath will now be at 6.35pm. Fair play, lads. https://twitter.com/DubGAAOfficial/status/745724935289585664 https://twitter.com/gaaleinster/status/745728830258688000 https://twitter.com/westmeath_gaa/status/745728675002351616 https://twitter.com/KildareGAA/status/745729762207870977 SNAPCHAT
