It’s a shame that we won’t see too many of these in the Parc Olympique Lyonnais on Sunday.
That’s not for a lack of demand, mind you. It’s just down to the fact that express shipping still won’t get you the new ‘The Italian Rob’ t-shirt or hoody in time for this weekend’s clash.
But, when we inevitably get to the final, we expect the Stade de France to be jam-packed with them.
Robbie Brady’s leaping header is still fresh in the hungover minds of Irish supporters and the iconic image of the 5 ft 8 in Norwich star hanging in the air has already prompted a clothing line.
T-shirts and hoodies with the image of Brady’s beating of Salvatore Sirigu in the air emblazoned on the front can now be purchased at www.RedBubble.com and it’s safe to say that we’re huge fans.
The t-shirts will set you back around €21 while the hoodies are a tad pricier at €42.
That’s a small price to pay to have a piece of Irish sporting history on your chest, though.
