Watch: Italian Mayo Fan Goes Absolutely Nuts During Comeback Against Dublin

We'd like to apologise profusely to this Mayo fan if he is not actually from Italy but he's speaking Italian so we thought that was sufficient run with it. We say he's from Italy but in reality, he's obviously Mayo through and through because the passion in his voice only comes from over half a century of waiting for an All Ireland title.

And while we can't get on board with this filming live sporting events carry on, we'll certainly give it a pass this time.

We've enlisted the help of a translator and he's given us a play by play of this individual's wonderfully passionate running commentary.

The vast majority of what he's saying involves the word die. Only it's not actually die it's more like 'dai', an Italian version of g'wan. For example, 'Die kill yon' is 'g'wan Cillian'.

So here's a running commentary of some of the more audible parts of his running commentary.

1:12 Bring it home, bring it home
1:14 Fuck
3:15  Go on lads
3:21 Bring it home
3:40 Son of a whore! Son of a slut!
3:47 Thieves!
4:28 (After being told approx 3 mins of injury time left) "Shit, they won't play it"
I think we can all agree that this man is the next Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh. One thing's for certain, with passion like that, he's a vital part of the replay. So, if you're ScaccaMayo, or you know who he is, feel free to let us know so we can make sure to keep an eye out.
