Ireland players, including Troy Parrott, centre, celebrate after Hungary win

The Troy Parrott effect has kicked into gear again as the FAI today confirmed that season ticket packages for 2026, which will include a home final in a World Cup play-off if Heimir Hallgrimsson’s side win their semi-final away to Czechia, have sold out.

Hours after the dramatic win at home to Portugal in the World Cup qualifiers, the FAI had made a push for fans to get their 2026 season tickets in advance, challenging supporters to “lock in your 2026 season ticket today and guarantee your seat for every moment of what comes next”.
