Republic of Ireland forward Jonathan Walters says that is an "unbelievable" achievement for his country to qualify for Euro 2016.

Jonathan Walters has said that helping the Republic of Ireland qualify for Euro 2016 is the "best moment" of his career.

The 32-year-old scored twice to help his country to earn a 2-0 victory over Bosnia-Herzegovina in the second leg of their playoff as they booked their spot at next summer's tournament in France.

"There was a whole team of heroes out there - we got there in the end," Walters told Sky Sports News.

"It is the best moment of my career in any shirt - to qualify for the European Championship finals is unbelievable. You've got to take in this atmosphere, these moments don't come around in a career very often.

"The management team deserve lots of credit - they have been excellent throughout the campaign."

Walters has scored 10 goals in his 38 appearances for Ireland.
