Northern Ireland's Kyle Lafferty Can't Wait to Play against Lionel Messi at Euro 2016

We're pretty certain he was just trolling Sky Sports News.

Northern Ireland players have every right to be happy.

The football minnows finished top of their qualification group for Euro 2016, which means that a team boasting talents like Shane Ferguson, Craig Cathcart and Paddy McNair could line up against the likes of Germany, Italy or France next summer.

Northern Irish talisman, Kyle Lafferty, stunned reporters and viewers when he revealed that he was excited to play against "Lionel Messi and Neymar" of Argentina and Brazil in the EUROPEAN championships. If you don't know what's wrong with that, you're in the wrong place.

We're pretty certain Lafferty was just trolling the reporter.

Because he pulled out a 'WHAT ARE THOOOOOSE?' on live TV just a few minutes later.
