Click on SBS, it might take a few minutes to load but you should be ok if you're on broadband.

Get the feeling that the game is in the balance now. A goal now either way may decide things.

France beginnng to attack more as the Irish look
more defensive at the moment.

O Shea almost scored, wrong side of post.

Ireland are rattling the french but it is end to end stuff

I will be gutted if we dont get at least a point, we
don't deserve to lose we are playing too well.

0-0 good result but goin by the vidiprinter the players would be right to feel a wee bit disappointed not to have snatched it. Sounded like we created a few chances. But 0-0 away to France ye would have taken that result before the game. :eek:

Excellent result, as good as any we have ever achieved away from home. With the Swiss and Israelis also dropping points it is very even with our 2 most difficult matches over with. The boys rose to the occassion and did the business - it really helped that both Keanes & DUff were fully match fit this time around.

Should have won it, but great performance. Sets us up nicely for the remainder. A good win over the Faroes on wednesday to boost our goal diff will do the world of good.

Ratings:
Given: 2 great saves. didnt have much to do, but did what he had to do well 8

O Shea: Out of position for most of the match. Very poor. Unlucky with his chance. I reckon he didnt think it would come to him. 5

O Brien : Partnership with Cunningham developing nicely. Did nada wrong. 7

Cunningham: Marshalled his defence very well 7

Carr: Excellent performance both defensively and attacking. Certainly made amends for his poor showing against the Swiss 8

Duff: Did well, but had to cover for O Shea too often. Didnt do anything wrong though 7

Keane: Quiet but effective 6

Kilbane: Not international class my hole. Absolutely outstanding this evening. Tacking and distribution top class. MOTM 9

Finnan: best game yet for ireland. 2nd best irish player tonight 8

Keane: No service, but didnt forrage enough. By his standards - poor 5

Morrison: Seemed to frighten the life out of that french Centre Half (Givet?). Ireland felt his loss 7

Sub:
Reid: Great display, as he was in an unusual role. 7

Did I watch a different O`Shea tonight or something?

His best performance in an Ireland shirt by a distance.

I thought O Shea played a lot better as well. The programmes sandwhiches either side of the game were brilliant.

I reckon Kerr is a great manager
