Cork native Alex O’Brien talks us through the joys of following his local club, Cork City, and the growing football culture in Ireland. We chat about matchdays at Turner’s Cross, the passion surrounding the League of Ireland and what makes Cork such a special football city.
We also head across to the south of Madrid, where Alex has another footballing love: AD Alcorcón. Currently playing in Spain’s third tier, Alcorcón have embraced Alex as one of their own through his ‘Alcorcón Irlanda’ support, which gaves us a chance to explore the club, its fans and the pleasures of following fútbol modesto in Madrid.
You can follow Alex's Alcorcón account on X at @AlcorconIrlanda and his own account at @AlexisOBrien48.
