Premier League Meets Ireland | Dublin News

Get ready for a historic football showdown next Wednesday as Manchester United and Leeds United clash in an all-Premier League friendly at Croke Park in Dublin — the first-ever match of its kind at the iconic venue. Ambassador Kara Owen, a Liverpool fan at heart, is thrilled to host a sold-out kids’ clinic with retired legends from both clubs, turning the event into a cultural celebration of Irish-British sporting ties. With Irish players proudly representing these clubs through the years, this isn’t just a game — it’s a heartfelt tribute to shared passion. And the momentum continues: next April, Wigan Warriors and Warrington Wolves will take on each other in Dublin’s Laya Arena. Owen, who began her ambassadorship last October and even picked up some Irish, is using every opportunity to deepen connections through sport — proving how football and rugby can unite communities across the Irish Sea.
