Brady doing great attacking down the left. Nice one-two with Hendrick there.

Here comes Brady with the free kick.....How did that Bosnia #4 not get a card for that?

No way that was a penalty! Bosnia don't seem to be very good at all though.

#4 should have been given a second yellow for that "tackle". Brady playing out of his skin so far.

There is an Estonian-esque disintegration in this Bosnian team, if Ireland can keep the pressure on. Their defence, keeper and outfield, is very rattled.

We need a second goal here. We are sitting back too much and it is only a matter of time before Bosnia score.

Desperately need to get to half-time so we can re-adjust the gameplan

Why are we sitting back as if it's 2 minutes to go.

McCarthy and Whelan need to step up.

One of the worst teams we've ever played against. Completely hopeless and yet we haven't turned the screw.

Loving Walters so far. Good to see an attacking player sprint back and forth as needed, getting involved. Ireland have sat back - though Bosnia also woke up a bit after the goal - but I don't mind that too much, because Ireland are still finding the gaps to exploit going forward. Keep that up for 60 minutes, Long on for an exhausted Walters, and you'll see a desperate Bosnia leave bigger gaps all over the place.

How was that a peno? We'll take it but if I was Bosnian I'd be livid.

Who was doing the shouting during minute silence? Very bad form

With such a dodgy discussion we might have to offer to replay the game if we get through on that:eek:

Appalling penalty call- just like in Poland! - balanced by Spahic still being on the pitch.

There's a red card in this for them, and then happy days.

Like the first leg, our defence is better than theirs and their attack is better than ours. But I think the overall effect isn't as obviously in their favour.

Run at their guys on yellows, harry their defence in possession and there's a crucial second here for us.

Begovic is surprisingly awful.

Far from concrete, but media sources on Twitter say it was a few morons in Bosnian end, and Irish responded with jeers in that direction.

That's what it looked like from the pictures. Lot of Irish fans directing their anger at the small end

I can see McClean getting sent off for Ireland hopefully not tonight.

Was still raging about utterly crazy refereeing decision to not give a second yellow when that went in. Walters is some man. Some man.

We actually beat teams ranked above us now!!!!

Brilliant.

Well done MO'N. Had a lot of snipers early on but the trust in the group has paid off. Clark, Brady, Coleman, Walters - take a bow. 4 massive performances tonight.

Well that was frustrating all my streams kept freezing all over the place towards them end, maybe they were bosnian streamers who pulled the plugs!!

Anyway good evening 50p on 2-0 at 10-1, also had 50pat 5-1 plus later two cover bets of 30p on 2-1 and 3-1.

total staked £1.60 returned £6, profit £4.40.

better than a poke in the eye! ;)

Congratulations on qualification. Fully deserved the win tonight, even with the dodgy penalty.

Just do us a favour and go easy on us now in any and all meetings over the next 2 1/2 years. :p

Yeah funny how the players most ridiculed stepped up the most. I now have no lingering doubts re Randolph, for sake of balance.

That was a McCarthy home win. Wobbly moments but clear cut victory...in the end.

Never a penalty :)

Hard to believe we have qualified. All looked lost at various points in the group. Poland at home until late on, after Scotland at home etc. Special thanks to Georgia this evening, their win over Scotland gave us the initiative back in the race for qualification.

Tonight was satisfying, we got at them early, we had nervy moments but we kept them comfortably enough at arms length for most of the evening. They were ridiculously overrated and didn't really have the stomach for it.

Jon Walters up until this campaign had been up and down in an Irish shirt but he's shown his club form in this campaign and has come up with some big moments. Given we campaigned for a 24 team championship it would have been embarrassing to miss out especially with Northern Ireland qualifying. Big night for the game here. Hopefully we can go there and be competitive now.

Manly hugs all round.
We did it the hard way, having to beat Germany to make up for lost ground and beat a higher ranked team (a team that's better than Wales !!) in the play offs.

Not that it's our issue but Bosnia badly need a better manager.

Thought that was one of the most mature Irish performances in a pressure game that I've ever seen. Clutch, as they say. Fantastic stuff in defence and Walters is the most lovable irish player in an age. Bosnians beat themselves psychologically - that (non-Serbian) Balkan inferiority complex rears its head again.

Eire abu!!

Congrats to MON and R. Keano. They had a rough ride early on but they have started to click! The odd couple now the perfect match!

A few hairy moments, I think of one in particular when it was obvious the ball was gonna be pulled back so
the bosnia player went to that position, our defence parted like the red sea, the ball was pulled back
the goal wide open but he fluffed his shot.
