World Rugby published this video item, entitled “ELECTRIFYING ATTACK! | Best of Ireland in World Rugby Sevens!” – below is their description.
With the World Rugby Sevens Repechage just around the corner we take a look at some of the sides competing, starting with electrifying Ireland, here are some of their best ever attacks, including a try from Love Island star Greg O’Shea!
Ireland is an island in the North Atlantic. It is separated from Great Britain to its east by the North Channel, the Irish Sea, and St George’s Channel.
Geopolitically, Ireland is divided between the Republic of Ireland (officially named Ireland), which covers five-sixths of the island, and Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom. As of 2016, 4.8 million people live in the Republic of Ireland, and 1.8 million live in Northern Ireland.
The Irish climate is influenced by the Atlantic Ocean and thus very moderate, and winters are milder than expected for such a northerly area, although summers are cooler than those in continental Europe. Rainfall and cloud cover are abundant.
A strong Irish culture exists, as expressed through Gaelic games, Irish music and the Irish language. The island’s culture shares many features with that of Great Britain, including the English language, and sports such as association football, rugby, horse racing, and golf.
Love Island is a reality TV show in the United Kingdom in which contestants are sent away to an island, and participate in a series of tasks. During the show, they keep swapping partners until they find “the love of their life” with the winner being decided by a public vote. The show is broadcast in the UK by ITV on ITV1 and ITV2.
