Fair play to her. 

As Ireland fell to a 43-20 point defeat at the hands of Argentina in the Rugby World Cup quarter final on Sunday, one lady in the crowd caught the eye of media and fans everywhere.

The woman was caught on camera playing a tin whistle, and caused quite a stir on Twitter.

While you might have thought that was the last you’d see of her, it turns out she did something pretty sound at the final whistle.

She was captured on camera once more presenting Argentina’s head coach Daniel Hourcade with her tin whistle, and even managed to plant a kiss on his cheek.

What a hero.

If that’s not proof of how sound Irish fans are we don’t know what is.
