Champions League - Round of 72

I count 10 Irish with winner’s medals, but 8 that actually played in the final on a winning team, as O’Shea was an unused sub and Keane was suspended.

Tony Dunne '68
Shay Brennan '68
Steve Heighway '77 & '78
Michael Robinson '84
Ronnie Whelan '84
Mark Lawerson '84
Denis Irwin, Roy Keane '99
Steve Finnan '05
O’Shea '08

For the Argies I count 9 (unless you include Rial and Di Stefano, who had switched allegiance to Spain by the time they played for Real).

Dominquez
Redondo
Solari
Milito, Zanetti, Cambiasso, Samuel
Mascherano, Messi

There may be other Argies who picked up medals but didn’t take part in the final a la Keane.

Please explain your rationale for excluding Carlos Tevez from your list.

He was born on the 2nd Wednesday after a full moon.
