The landing gear reportedly sparked a fire on the runway upon landing. Fire officials confirmed the flames on EI110 to Shannon, though the aircraft made a safe landing and the situation was quickly controlled. No injuries were reported among the 115 passengers and crew.

Sensualist headline as the plane made an emergency landing and a gear caught fire, not making an emergency landing because it caught fire. If you really want to know what happened see: http://avherald.com/h?article=48d11f88&opt=0
The headline has things in the wrong order...
The title is incorrect. The plane landed, then the landing gear sparked a fire on the runway after landing according to the body of the article.
