Ireland football jersey from Italia '90

"Ireland's first World Cup and as a nine-year old I was in heaven. I didn't want it to end, even after we were eliminated! Ireland were eventually beaten by Schillaci and the hosts Italy on a famous night in Rome. Small, wee Republic of Ireland had got to the quarter finals of the World Cup! Every player returned to a rousing homecoming in Dublin. And this is the jersey from it."
