Good end to end game so far. Both sides look like they could score. Couple of poor decisions in the final third from Ireland!
Rightly awarded peno .
That's a soft penalty
€22.5mil player stepping up to take that peno...phew!!

Probably just as well that we didn't need anything from this to stay ahead of Sweden in the group.
Lads where is Okoflex
Tis early yet, showing more since the goal. Up against it but ye never know and the play-off was always the target. The pressure is all on Italy so should go at them.
Desperate goal keeping there, game over.
This is poor enough, brutal keeping
That’s a really poor goal. Maher will have to be disappointed not to save it. The injury may well have impeded him a bit, looked like he had very little spring off his foot when diving for the save.
I’ve been wholly unimpressed with Maher, distribution poor. Should have saved that shot. Do we not have anyone better cross channel?
Playing PL2 football wasting the best years of his development, why?Quote:

Overall a frustrating half. Two bad goals to give away and some poor decisions and touches proving costly at the other end.
Cashin has looked shaky at the back and I think Ferguson has struggled a bit up top. He floats wide a bit too often for my liking too. There was a few times we had it in wide positions and Ferguson wasn’t in the box, which is where he was needed.
Wright has been poor by his standards. Couple of really bad decisions on the counter and faded out of the game. Kerrigan got more involved as it went on but also didn’t find a killer ball. Smallbone had probably the best chance but miscontrolled, still some moments of quality but looks a bit tired.
Lucky now that Sweden didn't pull off a win over Italy
There's a lad at Man City that's meant to be decent, couple of other Premier League clubs meant to be interested in him as well...Quote:
