This almost brings a tear to the eye.

Northern Ireland have announced their squad for Euro 2016... and man, do they mean business. This summer in France will be Michael O'Neill's men's inaugural participation at the European Championships and they've marked the special occasion by naming their squad in wonderfully passionate and dramatic fashion. The clip sees the names of each player stoically announced, set to the backdrop of stunning scenery. It's proper Game of Thrones stuff... https://twitter.com/NorthernIreland/status/736521295890763776 Just in case you can't watch the video because you're excessively welling up/don't have enough time, here is a list of the squad. https://twitter.com/NorthernIreland/status/736535044945235968 Northern Ireland start their Euro 2016 campaign against Poland on June 12, before facing Ukraine four days later and world champions Germany on June 21.
