Gardaí in Limerick gave a red card to a motorist caught watching the Spurs v Man Utd clash this Sunday afternoon.

An Garda Siochana Limerick shared the news as a road safety warning to others on their social media accounts.
The headline for the update is “Soccer Sundays”.
A garda spokesperson said: “Limerick Roads Policing apprehended this vehicle earlier today, travelling at 120km/h whilst the driver was simultaneously watching the Spurs v Man Utd game on their phone.”

The garda spokesperson said: “Needless to say, a court appearance will follow for this football enthusiast. Roads Policing 1 - 0 This Driver.”
