Some of the misses we’ve managed under Kenny it would almost be easier to put on target…you’d swear the Irish players are trying to score a field goal or something with some of the misses.

All huff and puff out there, but there's a feeling of a lack of leadership on the pitch. No one is good enough to pull the strings.

Azerbaijani keeper getting to every cross going. I swear I think I just saw him yawn.

Can’t fault the effort. Just a dire lack of cutting edge at the crucial moments.

This is getting close to panic stations now.
10 to go and if we're honest, we haven't really threatened since the first 10

These guys are full value for their 1-0 lead. We are asking no questions whatsoever.

The amount if misplaced passes in the last five minutes...heads are gone. These guys want to be back at their clubs.

Some context: Kenny's home Luxembourg defeat is widely accepted to be the worst defeat in Ireland's entire footballing history.
Luxembourg are ranked 96 in the world; Azerbaijan are rated at 112.
Let that sink in.

Biggest goal scoring threat, again. Keeper should have done better, but they all count.

Duffy blasts the keeper into the net.
Still has the feel of Finnan's equaliser against Cyprus

Long ball into the box and a goal off our CB's head. If only Kenny had been willing to play this way for the past year.

Can we do to these what Portugal did to us?

We keep getting told by a certain cohort of our supporters that Duffy isn't good enough for the sophisticated Kenny and his 'system' - not sufficiently aesthetically pleasing or eye-catching on the ball.
Well, unfashionable though it may be to say it, he remains our best player.

There'll be a few lads leaving foot.ie en mass tomorrow. Reputation in tatters. Some saw serbia as some sort of apocalypse and we lost to lux. Some saw Portugal as a superb performance and we draw with Azerbaijan. Hear ye hear ye. This is just awful. What more embarassment do you want upon your country, your team?

Solid result. Green shoots. Keep building for the Euros.
