Based on our performances against yugoslavia where Kennedy scored that screamer, I predict that we will win WC2034.Quote:

I agree. I'm still expecting Ian Harte to score that penalty against Spain and it affects every Ireland game I watch now.Quote:

Their match with Azerbaijan is live on VM2 tonight, same time as ours.
I love that even with out fabled right back issue, they even blow us out of the water there. They have Cancelo, Cedric and Ricardo Pereira to chose from.
It's ridiculous - and this guy doesn't even make their 'alternatives' list - https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/56243780Quote:

Peppered the goal but actually could have easily conceded an equaliser late on. The own goal was a mess between the goalkeeper and defender dealing with a pretty harmless looking cross.Quote:

He took a bad knock in the first half I think, having flicked over I'd actually thought he'd gone off injured, but seemingly not.
Qatar beat Azerbaijan 2-1 today
And Luxembourg 1-0 the other day. They'll be a useful test for us, though we could really use some whipping boys right now for a moral boost.Quote:

Serbia's second was a lovely team goal. These two seem streets ahead of the rest, though they've only recorded one-goal wins so far
Did the Portuguese bring on a sub for Ronaldo or was the game actually finished. In fairness the ball was well over the line. Was there No Russian Linesman available ?Quote:
