Photo journal: Belfast mourns George Best

Sisters Dolores Coffey, Carmel Moore and Celine Madden remembered Best for different reasons.

The trio had journeyed from County Meath to watch the ceremony.

Ms Madden said: "His footwork was amazing, nobody could get it off him. If he got the ball, he scored."

Ms Moore added: "When we were young George gave us all great pleasure. He was a very good looking man. It was enough for me to just look at his face."
