The week in tweets
It’s all about the Boys in Green and in particular Wesso in this week’s tweets... Gary Lineker @GaryLineker What a fabulous goal for The Republic of Ireland’s Wes Hoolahan. Much more preferable to talk of Hoolahan’s strikes than hooligan’s strikes. Matt Le Tissier @mattletiss7 What a finish Wes Hoolahan Henry Winter @henrywinter Superb approach play from Seamus Coleman, fabulous finish from Wes Hoolahan. Right foot. #irl lead deservedly. Shane Lowry @ShaneLowryGolf And how good were Wes Hoolahan and Robbie Brady??? Duncan Alexander @oilysailor Wes Hoolahan now has as many Euros goals as Ruud Gullit and Raul. Wayne O’Connor @WayneWanyeEast Wes Hoolahan is the Irish Messi according to L’Equipe #Irl #EURO2016 Mark Rodden @MRodden Der Spiegel also getting in on the act with a Hoolahan = Irish Messi reference. The secret is out! #IRE #COYBIG Jamie Carragher @Carra23 Oh Yes Oh Yes Oh Yes!! Great commentary from Pearce & strike from Hoolahan. #IREvSWE Didi Hamann @DietmarHamann Good start to the tournament for Ireland, shame about the result. Confident they got enough to get the points required to progress Mark Chapman @markchapman A Zlatanesque finish that from Hoolahan #IREvSWE Alan Kelly @alanrefkelly Not forgetting the contribution of the @LeagueofIreland in today’s result especially Wes Hoolahan #GreatestLeagueInTheWorld #COYBIG John Cassidy @JohnCassidy Nice to hear the Irish “Ole, Ole, Ole” ringing out at a peaceful Stade de France. Miguel Delaney @MiguelDelaney Also, Ireland’s football history continues to essentially be the ranking of 1-1 draws, with the difference being when the goals come. Kieran Cunningham @KCsixtyseven After that jinking run in the Stade de France, he’ll have to change his name to Shimmy Coleman. Eoin O’Callaghan @EoinOCallaghan Some positives but that’s a big chance gone. As much as I expected Sweden to be poor, they were a lot worse. Plenty still to play for though
