YOU’D LIKE TO think a professional athlete’s post-match diet would consist of a high-carbohydrate meal consisting of all the right foods but that’s clearly not the case, in either football or rugby.
In a new video ahead of Ireland’s make-or-break Euro 2016 Qualifier against Scotland, Seamus Coleman and rugby star Robbie Heshaw sat down for a good old chat.
Among the many topics discussed was playing for Ireland, their sporting heroes, future sporting aspirations and diets.
It quickly became clear that both players enjoyed a cheat meal after a game and Coleman wasn’t shy in sharing his preferred choice, although the Everton dietician might be on the blower before long.
Connacht centre Henshaw admitted he enjoys a pizza after the game but we’re not sure about the toppings he goes for.
