Profiles

Soccer Republic is RTÉ's main football television programme. It is shown on RTÉ Two on Monday nights during the Irish football season, showing highlights of recent matches in Irish football's top division, the League of Ireland Premier Division and also features on the Republic of Ireland team. The show is a re-branded version of the previous highlights programme Monday Night Soccer which aired from 2008 until 2013.

Contents

Soccer Republic is presented by RTÉ presenter Peter Collins. The first edition of Soccer Republic was screened on RTÉ Two at 11.05pm on 10 March 2014.

Show

The show is broadcast weekly on Monday evenings live from RTÉ Studio 6. Highlights of every League of Ireland Premier Division game are shown, with interviews with the managers and players, followed by studio analysis.
