On September 1st 2001, I was not much of an Irish fan. That wasnt much of a time to be a fan of anything in America. I had no way to follow the team or watch the games. So, I didnt see this goal. Recently, I was able to see it (sort of) in terrible quality off of the RTE website. Anyone know where I can see it?
Try searching youtube
I just love this picture. Still gives me goose bumps.

Also there are a few different pictures take from diferrent angles of that shot and the various stages of the ball entering the net. The best thing about all the photo's is the look on the faces of the people in the crowd. Some dont know the ball is in or going to go in, some do and some arent sure. Its pure brilliant.
I was East Upper, towards the north end of the ground. My initial reaction was "you ****, you've ballooned it over!" :)Quote:

1st one in the second row down
"Daydream, i fell asleep amid the flowers, for a couple of hours..."
That must be the fondest memory I have of the Irish football team as an adult. I watched Italia 90 and USA 94 but was probably a bit too young to appreciate it (I didn't know much about the players, formations, management, etc). I don't think I'll ever forget that one, watched it at 10am in a New York pub. The years 1994-2001 are a bit of a football blur, really.
thanks tetsujin , brilliant
Yeah, do you see? This is why I want to see the video :)Quote:

I was thinking "Don't volley it you tw**, you will put it in row Z".
Fortunately I was wrong :D
I still remember Finnan's sweet assed pass to set up the goal. Was online within 2 hours of the match booking my tickets to Japan.
the goal is available on a dvd called the road to asia or failing that try
Rising Sons, this might have a clip of the goal on it

of it though.

Look at Father Ted's post. Make sure everyone gives him a REP
I had extended highlights of this match from Dutch TV, complete with an interview with a very sour Louis van Gaal, on video CD. Unfortunately I can't find the CD at the moment.
Best moment was when Ruud ran into Given and the commentator starts shouting "Penalty! Penalty! Penalty!"
I wouldnt mind seeing those as well :)Quote:

Some great skill from Finnan there. Keane with the tackle and then skipping forward with the ball.
Great stuff.
Shivers down the spine watching that again.:(
Hard to believe that our last really good result in a qualifier against a good side was almost 5 years ago.
I guess that is why we are still taking about it on here :(
time for Big Stan to create a few new memories for us to cherish!
Your right there. Lets hope its in Sept against Germany!!!!!!!!!Quote:
