What a week for Irish football! And what a week for sports mixed with economic situation jokes!
Fresh from showing Germany that we're back in the big time, Ireland have gone and hammered poor old Greece – who we once sat next to in the European Union outcasts lounge – in their first match of the World Cup, by ten goals.
Final score of our 1st game: Ireland 11 - 1 Greece! Off to a good start here at @homelesswrldcup #HWCSupporter #TeamIreland #HWC2014
