Donnacha Ryan gets bragging rights over Racing 92 team-mate Simon Zebo after Tipperary's Munster final win

Simon Zebo may have thought that being a thousand kilometres away from home would help keep Cork's GAA woes out of his head, but sadly for him the only Tipp man in the building was on hand to give him a reminder.

Cork's Racing 92 star Zebo turned up for training today and the oval ball should have been a nice distraction - but upon arrival his Irish team-mate and Nenagh man Donnacha Ryan was there to greet him.

Sunday was a huge day for Irish sport, and Cork fell on the wrong side of it as Tipperary claimed their first Munster title in 85 years.

What made it all the more emotional was that the Premier put on special green and white shirts to pay homage to Michael Hogan and the 13 other victims killed on Bloody Sunday 100 years ago.

The county won't forget that win for a long time, and it was almost guaranteed Ryan was going to have a big smile on his face when he bumped into Zebo.

Donning his county colours, he posed with his good-spirited teammate who later jokingly posted the pic with the caption "ffs".

Their French team-mates were sure to be confused as to what it was all about - but it got an hilarious reaction on Twitter.
