Excellent performance; excellent result.

Some comments (http://www.extratime.ie/newsdesk/articles/3390/) from Rusty after the match.

Obviously the players deserve a lot of credit but Martin Russell is simply a God.

He was only third in the rankings of the Holy Trinity midfield of the late 90s... (Behind Gormley and Osam)

Religion was different in the late 90s, Dodge...

Anyways, here's the highlights. Terry's camera was acting up on the night, so I've used reverse angle highlights a fair few times. It's kind of hard to capture a really solid but unspectacular defensive performance in highlights, so that's what random clips of blocks and headers are trying to do justice to.

There's an excellent angle of the penalty call; even on slow speed, I can't decide if the keeper got a touch to the ball or not. Don't think it can possibly have been a goal kick though; either a peno or a corner.

How strange. I'll look into it.

Edit - when I go into the account, I get a message saying "This video is not yet processed", but I can view it. Any ideas? I don't know if the direct link is any better? - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9HJq4j_fYI

Works fine for me. I think it takes a little while before it's ready for viewing after being put up, maybe that's what was wrong.

When you upload something it takes a while for youtube to convert it to the "broadcast" version. Editors like yourself will still be able to view it, and change it but its not yet ready for the public. Usually only a matter of minutes

Super goal after quite a few passes.

Was the penalty incident at 1.40 into the video? Pats keeper parried and tried to gater as UCD player got a touch? As you said, it's difficult to see who touched the ball, but it looked like it would be a pretty harsh penalty to me (if that's the incident).

Yeah, that's the one. There is also the question as to whether Dave would have kept the ball in play had he not been fouled (if he was fouled), and indeed if that matters.

That would only impact on whether the keeper could be sent off for stopping a goalscoring chance I would think.
