AHEAD OF THE World Cup, ESPN’s renowned 30 for 30 documentary series is specifically focusing on soccer-related stories.

And in January, it was announced that one of the programmes would look at Ireland’s 1994 World Cup journey and in particular, its relationship with the Troubles and the Loughinisland massacre.

A trailer has now been released for the show, which can be seen below, and the programme is set to air in the US on Tuesday.

You can hear more details about Ceasefire Massacre in our interview with its producer Trevor Birney, which will will be up on the site this Saturday.
