Irish fans are in great form ahead of this morning's Rugby World Cup quarter-final between Ireland and New Zealand.
Thousands have travelled from the Emerald Isle to Japan for today's last eight clash in Tokyo.
Numerous songs were being sung outside the Tokyo Stadium ahead of the match, which gets underway at 11.15am Irish time.
Shane Lowry and Joe Canning are among the thousands of spectators attending the game.
Lowry is in Japan ahead of competing at the ZoZo Championship next week and revealed earlier this week he would the match.
He wrote in his Paddy Power blog: "I’m really excited to be in Japan for the ZoZo Championship that tees off next week and will get to go to Ireland’s Rugby World Cup quarter final against New Zealand on Saturday.
"I’m a big rugby fan – I go as much as I can. I’d go down to the RDS to watch Leinster and would go to as many Ireland games as I can. Outside of the GAA, it would probably be my favourite sport.
"It will be some occasion against the All Blacks and it’ll be pretty cool to witness it.
"I’m quietly confident. We’ve beaten them before and this Irish side are due a big performance and there’s not a better time than now to do it.
"I’d also love to see them show a few people up by doing it. Prove the doubters wrong. They’ve got an awful lot of stick in the last few weeks – unwarranted in my opinion. They’re trying their best, they’ve reached the quarter finals now and that’s all they can do."
