At the Euro 2016 finals in France, the country sent two teams the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. Both teams did well - each managed by a man called O'Neill, each resplendent in emerald green and backed by noisy, good natured supporters - but still they were as much divided as they were united. 'Green Shoots' examines why, almost a century after one Irish Association became two, this is still the case.
