They were 2-0 down but Garvan pulled one back. 2-1 with almost an hour gone.

argh. Im in an internet caff and they dont have an up to date flash. oh well.

Good to see the scoreline though!

Perhaps some food for thought as far as Garvan's involvement in the senior team is concerned!

**eirebhoy** · 09/09/2008, 6:29 PM

Ireland's defence getting ripped to shreds in the 3 minutes I've been watching.

**deecay** · 09/09/2008, 6:38 PM

A bit beter than the 1st video http://livefooty.doctor-serv.com/tue..._Ireland2.html

**Noelys Guitar** · 09/09/2008, 6:52 PM

What a chance in the last minute for Ireland to win.

**eirebhoy** · 09/09/2008, 6:52 PM

Should have been 2-3 there. Garvan freekick into the box. It fell to Scannell who was unmarked. He plays a first time pass to the number 13 who was also unmarked. He's a few yards from the goal but scuffed it wide.

Full time 2-2.

saw the last 16 mins. great stuff! The chat on the side was hilarious. Who are these people (not you eirebhoy!)?

Givens will get a 5 year contract extension for that result.

**Kildareman** · 09/09/2008, 6:55 PM

A good result but would have been nice. and deserved, to have won it.

Agree great result - don't think we should stop there, we must build on success. Givens for Ireland manager.

Great result! Portugal looked great when they played here last year. Anyone know how well McCarthy played?

According to the review on football365 - http://www.football365.com/story/0,1...123596,00.html - McCarthy was unlucky not to equalise with 2 chances, just before Garvan got the second.
