BARCELONA MAY NOT be visiting our shores to take on one of the Airtricity League’s top teams anytime soon but two of the league’s stars are alongside Lionel Messi on a special cover of FIFA 13.

The popular computer game’s creators EA Sports gave fans the chance to vote for the players they would like to see make the sleeve on extratime.ie and today it has been revealed that the winning pair are Mark Quigley and Davin O’Neill.

Bit O’Red striker Quigley has been instrumental this season and won Player of the Month last month, while O’Neill beat off stiff competition from the likes of Gary Twigg, Jason Byrne and Philly Hughes to take the second spot.

The cover will be available to download at easportsfootball.com/ireland-pack from this Friday, September 29.
