Ireland’s women returned home this week after exiting their very first World Cup finals after just three games.

Joining us to discuss Ireland’s performance at the World Cup and the wider legacy for women’s sport in Ireland is John Fallon,
soccer correspondent, fresh off the plane from covering the tournament in Australia.
