Ryanair have promised free flights from Ireland to Germany regardless of who wins today's World Cup group match.

However, it is not clear from the company's offer where potential travellers stand in the event of a draw.

The budget airline will announce a date for the free flights on its 12 routes between Ireland and Germany after today's match.
