#RIPAxel: Listen to ‘The Fields of Athenry’ as Anthony Foley is laid to rest

Rest in peace, Axel.

As the funeral of Anthony Foley takes place in his native Killaloe, we join in with the local radio stations who are playing the Munster anthem, 'The Fields of Athenry' at noon in memory of the rugby legend. Just 42, the Munster head coach and 2006 Heineken Cup winning captain died on Saturday night in Paris, hours ahead of the province's Champions Cup clash with Racing Metro. Thousands have gathered in the county Clare town to pay their respects to Foley, who died from a build-up of fluid on his lungs as a result of heart disease.
