At a special press conference yesterday, it was confirmed by "Trap and Manuela" that comedy sketches by Aprés Match will be part of RTÉ's coverage of Euro 2012.

Speaking through Manuela, Trap commented on Gilesy's tactical analysis of the Ireland team before taking questions from the floor.

Soccer analyst Eamo was among those asking the questions, demanding that the 'Trapattoni guy' explain why Andy Reid was not part of his plans.

Trap and Manuela stormed off shortly after but they will be back on RTÉ screens along with a host of other characters from the beginning of the tournament coverage, which includes all 31 games and begins on Friday, 8 June.
