AFTER PLAYING in two different positions during a World Cup game it was no surprise that Jamison Gibson Park was given the Man-of-the-Match award. 

The Leinster scrum-half, who also played in the wing position against Scotland, said he was "pretty lucky" to be playing with this Ireland team. 

He continued by saying "All the hard work gets done in front of me and I am thankful to be behind such a great pack and inside such a great back-line as well."

The atmosphere at the Stade de France as electric once again for Ireland's final group game and after securing a spot in the quarter-finals Gibson Park "thanked all the fans that came to support us."

Ireland will now face New Zealand next Saturday in the same venue when they will need every bit of support and more.
