"Playing in Ireland’s first-ever NFL game is an opportunity to introduce new fans to the Minnesota Vikings and help the league continue to make the game of football more accessible globally," Vikings team owner Mark Wilf said in a news release. "To do so against a storied franchise like the Pittsburgh Steelers adds a unique challenge that makes this even more special. 

"We are honored to be selected for this historic game and will be anxious to see what promises to be an electric game day environment in Croke Park."
