Germany V Republic of Ireland - Tuesday, 14th October 2014 - Euro 2016 Qualifier

This is something I noticed during the World Cup, and it bugged me then.

Surely RTÉ can come up with more imaginative captions for their video packages at half/full time than...

Good *Insert Team Name* Play

[NeverFeltBetter]

Moving beyond Ronnie Whelan's doom mongering, I'm fairly satisfied with that half. Defended as well as we could have with a few exceptions. Think Meyler is having a good game. Central midfield not really in the game. Keane shouldn't be on the field, he isn't going to get much supply or possession against that defence, so the role should go to someone with a bit more pace and endurance at the very least.

If Germany score we are done, it'll just be a matter of how much they win by. Dunphy saying its Trap with a Derry accent. Check the scoreboard.

I don't want Keane dumped from the squad entirely, but you can't tell me the likes of Long wouldn't do just the same or better out there tonight.

[TheOneWhoKnocks]

Useless technique by Walters in good position.

[backstothewall]

We've come out a bit here. I counted 5 green shirts ahead of the ball there at one point. I don't know how wise this is.

[NeverFeltBetter]

Game really could have turned on a dime either way there. Probably going to be Ireland's best chance at one end, German counter attacks looking deadly at the other.

Before it all ends in tears, I want to say that Ireland have started the second half really well.

[tricky_colour]

I'd say that situation suits us just fine.

Indeed, half of me thinks the same thing but the greedy half is hoping for an Ireland win.

[tricky_colour]

German look a lot more threatening now

[backstothewall]

We need a breather here. All starting to get a bit chaotic

[BonnieShels]

The Province score and Scotland score. Gah...

[NeverFeltBetter]

If he could have seen Keane to his right there...

[BonnieShels]

This is killing me lads.

[NeverFeltBetter]

Was time. Boatang got the ball there near the half way line and Keane was nowhere near him. McGeady tiring too, terrible decision not to lay it off for McClean just now.

We were 5-0 down at this point two years ago.

[backstothewall]

I'd like to see Long on but I'm conscious of how dangerous it would be to have no subs left. If someone got injured and we ended up down to 10 it would be a disaster

[NeverFeltBetter]

Too much room. Great precision. No way back now I feel. Would do well to keep it at 1-0.

[tricky_colour]

Was thinking the same thing as the Sky commentator Quinn should not have backed off there.

[BonnieShels]

Screw the what ifs. There's no where a goal is coming here. The defending there was scandalous.

[BonnieShels]

Was thinking the same thing as the Sky commentator Quinn should not have backed off there.

Quinn was deplorable.

[BonnieShels]

Hoolahan on while chasing the game? Why can't we ever be positive.
