The FAI were only allocated 3,500 tickets for tonight’s World Cup qualifier against Wales at Cardiff City Stadium, where a play-off place at the very least will be at stake.
However, a walk around the Welsh capital today will tell you that a much greater number than that have made the trip for this crucial game.

Ireland fans have taken over Cardiff ahead of tonight's World Cup qualifier
– Paul Dollery and Eoin Lúc Ó Ceallaigh report from Cardiff
THE BIG DAY has arrived and the Irish are out in force.
The FAI were only allocated 3,500 tickets for tonight’s World Cup qualifier against Wales at Cardiff City Stadium, where a play-off place at the very least will be at stake.
However, a walk around the Welsh capital today will tell you that a much greater number than that have made the trip for this crucial game.
As we found out earlier on, confidence is high that Martin O’Neill’s side can emerge victorious.
Kick-off tonight at the Cardiff City Stadium is at 7.45pm.
