2016-06-09 16:10:00 from:SNTVThe Republic of Ireland squad arrived at their hotel in Versailles on Wednesday (8th June) ahead of Euro 2016.
The Republic of Ireland arrived in France on Wednesday and headed straight from Le Bourget airport to their hotel in Versailles.
The Republic of Ireland, led by manager Martin O'Neill and assistant Roy Keane, are in Group E and will open their Euro 2016 campaign against Sweden at the Stade de France on Monday 13th June.
Then they will then travel to Bordeaux to face Belgium on 18th June before playing Italy in Lille on 22nd June.
The side will be hoping to do better than they did in Euro 2012 when they were knocked out in the group stages.
Their only other appearance in the competition was back in 1988 when they were also knocked out in the group stages.
Overall, they've only ever won one game at the Euros- and have a tough group this around.
But a squad full of confidence after qualification will be backed by an entire nation at this tournament.
