As the Irish face England on Sunday for the third day of the Six Nations Tournament, Bono paid a visit to XV de Trèfle. On Twitter, the group U2 published a photo of its singer serving food to Captain Johnny Sexton, with the following caption: "At your service Sir ... and always at the service of a really great Irish team!" Ireland team coach Andy Farell appreciated the U2 star's gesture: “Incredibly privileged. What a man. He was great. "

- U2 (@ U2) February 19, 2020It is not the first time that Bono has shown his interest in XV of the Clover. When Brian O'Driscoll retired, the U2 singer had recorded a message for the rugby player: "When I think of Brian O'Driscoll, I think of number 13, a chance for us Irish. I also think of the 13 times Brian's nose was broken, not so lucky. Above all, I think of his leadership, which is one of the world's scarcest resources. ”
