Unless you’ve been living on another planet for the last 24 hours you’ll know that last night Ireland beat Italy 1-0.
During the match there was, as usual, a lot of activity on social media. One of the more amusing Twitter exchanges was between Ireland’s Aer Lingus and Italy’s Alitalia.
Hi @AerLingus this is not the #6Nations. Pls remind your guys to take the right ball! 😉 #Tifalitalia #ItaliaIrlanda pic.twitter.com/CowZtNFRDY

Ireland plays France next Sunday afternoon in Lyon, so will we see as much banter between Air France and Aer Lingus?
