Win tunnel

Cliftonville booked their place in the second round of the Samuel Gelston’s Whiskey Irish Cup courtesy of a 5-0 win over Islandmagee on Saturday – but, as always, there was more to the day than the 90 minutes on the pitch.

In a unique insight into the immediate aftermath of a game on a home matchday, our TunnelCam feature captures victorious Reds players returning to the changing room to the congratulations of uninvolved team-mates and, while energy levels are replenished with the delivery of pizza to both camps, the visiting squad can be heard taking the applause of Cliftonville’s fans before returning to the hustle and bustle within the confines of the McAlery Stand.

If you’ve ever wanted to know precisely what goes on behind the scenes while you’re making your way home or enjoying a pint in the Social Club, then wonder no more as our snapshot from the weekend delivers an up-close examination of precisely what occurs after the final whistle is sounded.
