    Keane being linked with a role with the U21s this morning. Different reports are saying he'll be the next manager, others are saying he'll work as team coach.
    All goals, yellow and red cards tweeted in real time on mastodon, BlueSky and facebook

    Had an excellent career at club and International level and for his enthusiasm alone would be a great addition to U21 set up

    Amidst all the memories Robbie listed, I hope he's also haunted by that miss against the Czech Rep.

    Good Strikers probably are very good at forgetting misses . Its not going to help with the next chances .

    I think I might have asked this before when previously mentioned, but for the life of me I'm struggling to remember that miss? Was it in the 1-1 game under Staunton? I remember Kevin Doyle hitting the post in the reverse fixture alright.

    I remember Keane missing a fairly late chance in the 0-0 at home to Slovakia under Trap, a header when he really should have scored. That could have been really costly but thankfully Slovakia subsequently imploded!

    Unless I dreamed it all, it was v Czech Rep in the home fixture in Stan's time, late on a Duff cross from the right corner landed on Robbie's head, he missed a point blank header.

    Doubt many of his 68 goals for Ireland were from the head. Not exactly known for having a good header.

    Got a few decent ones for club(s) and country. Off the top of my head - Holland and Cyprus away games, two excellent headers.

    Don't recall the Cyprus goal but the goal against the Dutch was good, especially given it was against strong opposition.

    When "headers" was mentioned, it was the Cyprus game that came to mind for me as well

    Can't find a video of Robbie's chance versus Slovakia, it was far worse than the Czech one iirc.

    Yes, it was only a few days after we lost in Cyprus. Jonathan Douglas missed a great chance too, in the first half. one on one vs Cech. Keane's miss was a back post header. It looked like a defender was going to get the cross but he missed. Keane failed to anticipate that it'd arrive and just missed it.

    He actually scored a header in the reverse fixture too, a tap in though.

    The only miss which haunts me is Houghton's against England in Wembley when the JC team was at the top of its game and missed out on the 1992 Euros as a consequence. I am not saying that there are not loads of others over the years but this one stands out above all the rest.
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
