VIDEO: Irish Players Take On Football Mind Quiz Show

They’ll be all business on the pitch later as they take on Sweden at the Aviva Stadium but ahead of that vital match Irish footballers Richard Dunne, David Forde and Conor Sammon put their brains to the test.

The lads took part in ‘Three’s Football Mind Quiz Show’ answering all sorts of questions about public enemy number one Thierry Henry and their gaffer Giovanni Trappatoni (who also makes an appearance in the hilarious video).

Dunne and co were tested by nine-year-old Matthew Nolan and eight-year-old Matthew Hanley from St. Oliver Plunkett School in Malahide but while we reckon their futures are destined to be in front of the camera, we’ll have to see if the boys in green can take one step closer to Rio tonight.

Coverage of the World Cup Qualifier between the Republic of Ireland and Sweden starts from 7.00pm on RTÉ Two this evening.

Let’s just hope their passing is better than their maths!
