    Aldo and Green both made their debut for Ireland at 27.

    Very disappointed for Stokes. I think Sheridan's value as a target man gives him the edge in Trap's eyes.

    The Algerians will get at least one bad hiding at the WC.

    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    Just back, was impressed with the display tonight.
    Sledge and Westwood were excellent. By and large WW's command of the aerial threat was superb. Nice to keep a clean sheet, despite an inexperienced back four. Kelly is looking more and more reliable at right back. Green and Cunningham did well on their debuts.
    Was good to see O'Dea play a significant amount of time, didnt see what happened JOSH but trust its not too serious. DOD did well, a couple of hairy moments but looked more composed than McShane did on Tuesday for example.
    Duff as ever did well, great ball in for the second goal. Lawrence was quieter tonight but did ok.
    Keane looked particularly sharp, couldve had another 2 goals.
    Disappointed Stokes didnt get a run out, certainly didnt see the value of keeping keane on for the last 20 mins. Sheridan did little of note.

    Overall, optimistic for the future (although we've had that feeling in the past after good friendly results), really are progressing well under Traps guidance and we move on in good stead with our ultimate aim should be top spot in our group. Considering the two teams we beat this week will be in SA, it is slightly tinged with saddness tonight that we are not.

    EDIT: Fcuking embarrassing clowns running on in the first half. Was in the north stand, didnt see where the Irish lad came on from but it did appear to be the north stand. what a langer!

    Watched it on Sky. Their commentary was cringeworthy as it harked ad nauseum to how England would fare againt Algeria. They asked Trap about it, they asked Liam Lawrence about it, they asked Robbie about it and I was delighted to hear Robbie, who few would claim to be mensa material, fairly eloquently tell them he couldn't give a flying one how England get on against Algeria.

    Delighted we kept a clean shean sheet.

    James is eager to impress with a strong run!

    Did the Algerian supporter run on to challenge him or was he having a bit of craic too? Fairly moronic anyway. This kind of thing was old after the very first time it ever happened.

    Just ran on for a laugh. Awful stuff from the security. What the hell is the point in police being at the game, not to mention the security/stewards. One steward walks on to the pitch after that knob had time to run the length of the pitch.

    Another very impressive performance considering we had nothing to play for and the guys must have had one mind on the beach. Robbie yet again was the stand out man, looked very sharp around the box, could have had a hat-trick (has he ever scored a hat-trick for Ireland?). It's a joy watching that guy score for Ireland, the word legend is used flippantly now but he certainly is that. Only person who will have gone down in my estimation was Liam Lawrence who I thought was poor tonight. Apart from that nothing to complain about and I'm sure we'll see the benefits of playing such a stable side for 2 years in our next campaign.

    San Marino (as I recall McShane won the penalty for one of the goals), which was the first since Connolly v. Liechtenstein

    The BBC are reporting that Robbie scored a hat trick.
