Garbage corner from Cox...
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
McGeady has the defenders in knots.
Another good cross from McGeady. Just a matter of time now before someone gets on the end of it. Terrible crossing from Ward, God he's woeful.
Another wonderful cross from McGeady. We could have had a penalty there.
Need to keep feeding McGeady the ball. He has the defender in bits.
These guys have done their homework on us, make no mistake. They've dealt with out crosses so far, knowing full well there's not a chance anything's going to come through the centre.
Walters is a good player but he's not a right winger. This is very frustrating to watch. I love Trap but surely McClean would do a better job running at the full back and taking a defender or two to that side of the pitch, allowing McGeady to have a bit more time on the ball before he gets closed down on the opposite flank?
Ward should be subbed off for a real professional footballer. Look at that one-two he just tried to play with McGeady. Hit it in the air straight to the Kazakh defender.
Can't understand the hysteria about all of this. According to the Irish "meeja" Kazakhstan are no-hopers, yet they don't know anything about the players, team etc. Pete Mahon spoke well of the league and players, even the US commentator is more clued in than the Irish journos. Can't help but feel this is playing into the hands of the anti-O'Brien group who are loving Ireland not winning. Kazakhstan are playing their first match in qualifying, so they're up for it, Ireland are in transition and without some players, and playing away from home. Yet still we're told to expect a walk over.
How an earth are McClean and Long still sitting on the bench?
Get McClean on, he will cause trouble, it's not Spain.
**** off McGeady you piece of ****. More embarrassing than Cyprus? To right. Walters can do one to
Time to sub Keane off for Long, he looks tired now.

It's not just that we should win, it's just the manner of our potential defeat is quite embarrassing. There's not even the rotten luck of the Kerr displays (Israel etc.) We've barely created any clear-cut chances. It's just "bang it into the box" and hope something happens.
Bookies regularly make mistakes. If Ireland were as hot for the win as all that it would have been far shorter. Lots of hopeful punters sticking money lowered the odds. Watched N. Ireland lash into Russia and deserved a point, Russians were not bad but took the win for granted. Can't do it ever.
