Damn, never thought I'd see us win a relay gold!

[@harshbutfair8993]

Yeah, and nearly a WR 😵‍💫😲😁. Amazing achievement for them, their trainers and the ones who are next in line probably driving them on and supporting them at the same time.

[@paulwalsh598]

We could be in line for 2. Madsley and Adelike are now more than a match for Bol and Klaver, and Healey and Becker at definately better than the Dutch 3rd and 4th runners.

[@ilpostino88]

Different gravy - the final leg was unreal - so proud to be Irish - the 4 of them are a credit to their country.

[@joestevens8753]

Amazing and so wonderful to see David Gillick on the mic doing the interviews again. He is an athletes athlete and knows the craic and gives encouragement when needed and is not afraid to tell it as it is. Well done 4x400 🥰

[@jbinoz1]

So nice that the interviewer was so genuine in his happiness for them

[@iesrfc9013]

[@MG-tb1kz]

I've watched the race so many times, what a fantastic achievement for the Irish team, congratulations🎉

[@patrickcassidy4493]

Wonderful moment, I ran for the NACAI team Ireland 1984 in Lisbon, 400m greatest moment of my life. Fair play to you.

[@write2pras84]

Congrats to you too! 🙌🏻

[@philipdawson7800]

Dude, Adeleke was absolutely MAD last night, insane run from her!! And the rest of the team responded in kind.

[@KJ_2020]

There is something uniquely special about winning on the track that no other sport can really replicate. That moment when they cross the line in first is just amazing. Hair stands up, goosebumps, tears coming it's all going on. And this is someone who doesn't normally watch athletics and I didn't watch this live and knew the result.

[@euviga]

Wow, what a performance. Really pleased for each of them. The guys put in a fantastic shift but the girls were at another level, unbelievable. We're so proud of you. Roll on the Olympics.
