Good match so far, end to end stuff. Doyle just hit the post. The quality of the picture is terrible.

Game live on Network 2 did u tey RTE.ie maybe live there too
Can't find anything on RTE.ie
not impressed with irelands defence so far
In fairness he has been given such a difficult job of leading the line. It's something that takes years of experience and I doubt he's even the leader of the line at Ipswich. Unless you're the genius that is Paul McShane you shouldn't be playing such a crucial role on your debut. I suppose there's no option really. A lot of the time he doesn't no whether to mark a player, push out or do anything. We should have brought Kenny Cunningham over for this. :DQuote:

did ireland just fookin equalize???? C'mon ireland!!!!
nice one. Any chance of a description? Cant find the game anywhere on the net for text updates...
Keogh very close to making it 2-1 at half time but cleared off thr linr. 1-1 Half Time
Doyle diving header into the bottom corner made it 1-1
just was checking out the oul equadorean federation website (not to good at the spanish though) but nothing on there...for those of us in the states - spanish channel news tonight (telefutura) may show highlights at 11est
Potter to Kilbane to Murphy on the left who sends in a cross and Doyle with the diving header.Quote:

any of you lads going to the game in boston on saturday?
Murphy got the ball on the left wing and swung in a great ball, Doyle scored with a brilliant diving header, very brave. O’Halloran at left full looks a decent player. Kelly doing well at right full, two lads in the centre all over the place. Potter started well, spraying the ball around but became less influential as half wore on, his delivers from set pieces are excellent. Keogh and Hunt are trying hard without too much success. Kilbane not really in it. Lads up front not getting enough ball to worry the Ecudoran defence.
hows our keper looking?
Fair point. Perhaps not quite as ignominious as Butler but different quality is needed for this level and sometimes, like McShane, it can be found from the most unlikliest of souces at the most unlikliest of times. He doesn't look up to snuff and neither does Bennett. O'Halloran looks a bit Hartesque, decent going forward but all over the place defensively. Youth and a lack of left-back's will make his chances all the better.Quote:

Keeper looking alright so far.Not much else to do apart from the goal but didnt have much chance with that.Poor defending from Bruce allowed him in.
No danger of falling asleep just yet
Ecuador on the ropes in the last few minutes before ht. The game is made for Hunt. Some rip roaring stuff. O'Halloran at LB has a bit of flair.
Kelly is just about holding some sanity to the back line.
What a goal by Doyle, one of those classic diving header goals from another era.
brilliant lads - really appreciate the updates...
Lapira on the bench then, chances of an appearance? Think O'Halloran has looked good as said before, need more from Kilbane, Keogh looks a bit lost wide right. Bennet and Bruce not workin, just defend about 5 yrds deeper and they'll be grand.
hows hunt playin? and murphy?
No changes at half time for Ireland
JEEEESUS, nearly an OG special there - back off the ECU defender and just wide
Aye interested to see Lapira get capped but at the same time you have to wonder if the FAI fancied saving a couple of plane fares. Why take domestic LOI talent when you can just grab a couple of natives from the locality eh?
Good start to the 2nd half, Potter does look good, maybe a central midfielder who can pass the ball, aint seen that since Mark Kinsella... :-)
That same long ball over the top is doin us all the time... Kavieadas good chance, tried to lob Doyle from 20yrds after Kelly misjudged a hopefull ball
Hunt and Murphy are doing well. Murphy has worked especially hard and his physicality has been useful. Also his ball for for Doyle's goal was a beaut.
Good pressure from Ireland starting the second half.2 corners in the first 3 minutes.Potter coming out playing well.ECU just after coming close with a chip but caught pretty easily
KK with 2 mini storms through cm.
Hardly noticed him in the first half.
C Doyle 6.5 comes in handy to prevent being lobbed one on one
Keep the updates coming lads, much appreciated.
Good save there from Doyle, shot heading bottom right from long range. Expect him to save it but he got down well and held it.
Thinking about it but I called the ticket office and they said my 2 year old would be charged full adult price so I'm not sure.Quote:
