Ireland have crashed out of Euro 2016, losing 2-1 to hosts France in Lyon.
But that didn’t stop their army of celebrity supporters taking to Twitter to praise them for a fantastic tournament.
Ireland finished the game with 10 men after Shane Duffy received a red card and when France scored twice in three minutes, the dream was sadly over.
Darren Randolph is a king. Our boys worked so hard. Proud of our Irish team! You deserve to celebrate🇮🇪Congrats to France on going through

Valiant effort, Ireland.
Go home with your heads held high. #IREvFRA— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) June 26, 2016
Well played boys. No revenge today sadly. Plan B it is. Wait til France vote for Frexit and we'll just invade them. #IREvFRA #COYBIG

Well played, Republic of Ireland. Gave France a real run for their money. Couldn't have given more.

Things had gotten off to a winning start with Robbie Brady scoring from a penalty in the first few minutes to the delight of the Irish fans.
They managed to hold on to that lead until the second half and Vogue Williams was one of the many stars to take to Twitter to cheer on the boys in green.

Nicky Byrne was feeling confident before the match and even took a cheeky dig at Thierry Henry.
And his wife Georgina shared a picture on Instagram of their twins Rocco and Jay with their hair painted red, white and orange for the big match.
