It remains our greatest adventure, not least because Jack’s Army not only gave a good account of themselves at Ireland’s first ever World Cup but they also progressed to the last eight - ony losing out to hosts Italy to a single goal in Rome. Over the years we’ve seen all the images on multiple occasions, all the different angles of that special month but we’ve collected 12 pics below that are rarely seen and cast a different light on that wonderful adventure all those years ago. ☘️
