We've seen the celebrations as we expected to see them. Champagne flowing, John Delaney ecstatic and all round revelry, but it's a slightly less obvious moment of celebration that has really made us happy this morning.
The following, heavily filtered, image was shared widely lastly night, particularly in LA where Galaxy fans took great delight in it and rightly so.

The original, courtesy of Sportsfile photographer, David Maher, is even better.
Two veterans, who've been around the block, drinking it all in. One with a bottle of beer, the other with a cup of tea. The respect, the elation, what's not to love?
The 2-0 victory in Dublin will go down as one of the great moments in Irish sporting history and we have a collection of the best pictures of the night so that you can relive our playoff success again and again.
