Johnny Sexton reunites with his children at Dublin Airport in adorable video

Johnny Sexton has shared the heartwarming scene of him being pretty much rugby tackled by his kids as he arrived back into Ireland.

The fly-half, who turned 37 while on Ireland's historic tour of New Zealand, was chased down by Luca, Amy and Sophie while other family members and friends of the Irish team cheered their arrival into Dublin Airport.

Reflecting on what must be a really pleasant surprise of an achievement to add to his various other accolades in an Irish and Leinster jersey, Sexton thanked the rugby community as a whole for cheering them on as they fought back from an opening test defeat against the All Blacks.
