The myth that men can't experience sympathy pains is a God damn lie.

Not a whole lot happened in the first half of Ireland's crunch Group E clash against Belgium, mainly due to the Boys In Green's inability to keep hold of possession. However, there was one moment where everyone watching winced a little. We are of course talking about when Robbie Brady literally put his balls on the line and put in a heroic black against the Belgians. It was certainly painful, but thankfully Brady got back to his feet and managed to run it off. Twitter was very sympathetic to the Dubliner following the incident, and yes, there were testicle puns galore. https://twitter.com/phlaimeaux/status/744162278312976385 https://twitter.com/EDDIEDURKAN/status/744162274034716673 https://twitter.com/kenearlys/status/744162062885130244 https://twitter.com/1886_blog/status/744161998385078272 https://twitter.com/nbrez/status/744161982975254528 https://twitter.com/arseblog/status/744161946644127744 https://twitter.com/al_ob/status/744163422657458176 https://twitter.com/wallybyrne/status/744162174139006976?lang=en SNAPCHAT
