Well, Andy, there's been a subdued atmosphere around the Northern Ireland camp after supporter Darren Rodgers tragically died hours after they lost 1-0 to Poland.
The players are expected to wear black armbands against Ukraine when the sides meet in Lyon on Thursday.
It's a game they know the importance of in relation to progressing out of the group.
Johnny Evans faced the media today and told us that they need to get back to what made them such tough opponents in qualifying, describing the game against Ukraine as a cup final.
There's a feeling among the players they didn't perform to the levels they're capable of, certainly in an attacking sense.
They will have no shortage of support on Thursday.
I'm told up to 20,000 supporters are expected at the game.
Paul, what are you hearing from the Northern Ireland camp?
Well, Andy, it's been relatively low-key for Northern Ireland today compared to the drama of Tuesday, of course, when star striker Kyle Lafferty limped out of a training session.
Lafferty continues to be carefully monitored for that groin injury.
He was back running yesterday, and everyone here insists he will be fit for Poland on Sunday.
As for today, the players had a day off, a day they could forget about football completely.
Northern Ireland are very comfortable and confident that their preparation on Poland has gone well.
They are looking forward to their first European Championships game.
Despite that day off, Luke McCulloch and Niall McGinn did face the media.
The best part of that news conference was when a Polish journalist asked McCulloch if he had ever played against any of Poland's players.
I don't think any of the Polish players play in League One, was the response from the Doncaster defender.
News also filtered through from Belfast that one ferry company has promised Michael O'Neill and his players free travel for life if they win Euro 2016.
It won't be plain sailing, though, for the 500-1 shots, but they are the form team.
Following Spain's defeat against Georgia, Northern Ireland have the longest unbeaten run of all the competing nations, a run of 12 games.
