And breathe.

What an afternoon for Irish soccer! What a week for Irish soccer. Troy Parrott, where do you want your statue?

An elated Raf Diallo is joined by an ecstatic Kevin Doyle and a buzzing Ray Houghton to try and make sense of Troy Parrott's hat-trick in Budapest.

Ray dials in from the press box in the Puskas Arena, where the Republic of Ireland twice came from behind to beat Hungary and qualify for next March's 2026 World Cup play-offs.

The hero of Euro '88, Italia '90 and USA '94 gives us a sense of what it felt lke to be in the stadium as a new generation of Irish football fans got their 'I was there' moment.

Kevin, after doing a few laps of the TV studio, had calmed down enough to reflect on Parrott's performance and his emotional post-match press conference.

We hear from the man of the moment and Heimir Hallgrimsson, plus there is time for a quick preview of the Under-17s last-16 game this Tuesday at the World Cup in Qatar.
