The 10 Best Tweets From Ireland's Defeat to Belgium

It was a cruel defeat and with a referee that'd put Raul Nazare to shame, Ireland suffered a three-nil defeat to Belgium in Bordeaux.

It was pretty evident from kick-off that Belgium was outclassing Ireland and our own defence was being outmatched, however the Twitter reaction made it so much worse.

You know what they say about misery? It loves company.

10.

The case for Irexit gets stronger with each pan-European competition. First it was Eurovision, now it's this...
