Ireland may not have made it through to the World Cup in Russia this summer (blame the Danes fault), but the tricolour is still being flown over there all thanks to SIS Pitches. 

Green will be a prominent colour as the Sligo based company have been drafted in to install half of the playing surfaces for the pitches with SISGrass. 

The Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow will host the opening ceremony, a semi-final and the final, making it the first time a final will be played on pitch that is not 100% natural grass.

CEO of SIS Pitches, George Mullane chatted to Dermot and Dave all about the venture on this morning's show. And he's got quite the portfolio. 

You can listen to the chat in full by pressing the play in the image above the headline at the top of the page.
