Donegal TD Pearse Doherty has told the Dáil it’s wrong that tonight’s crucial World Cup qualifier won’t be shown free-to-air in the North.

Addressing Tánaiste Simon Harris, he said the government must act so fans across the island can watch their national team.

He’s described the geo-blocking of RTÉ coverage as unfair, especially for one of Ireland’s biggest matches in years.

Speaking in the Dáil, Deputy Doherty said the government must urgently end what he called the exclusion of viewers in the North
