Just incredible. I was doing my GCSEs last time we won a tournament game.

Up your hole !!!!!
England in the quarters boyos!
Also - Apres Match! Nailed it. Brilliant! :-)
The missus thinks I'm watching the French game in Tubber, Co Clare. The missus is wrong.

Have to agree with Dunphy, probably the best winning goal we have ever scored in a major championship. Brave by O'Neill to pick.this team. Happy for Hoolahan too as if we hadn't scored he would copped it.for his miss. Lastly, this could be our starting team come the WC qualifiers as none of these players will.be retiring after this campyaign.

I've just stopped crying. What a beautiful moment. So happy for Robbie and Wes. Amazing stuff. You know what I loved? The Irish fans, at about the 75' mark, at 0-0, raising the fcking roof with the Fields of Athenry. That's when we need it, that's when it means something. When the team needs the push to keep going and pushing through the pain, heat and exhaustion.
Love you all.
Still shaking with emotion after that! Pure, raw pride watching that display of pure, raw pride. This could be the game that kickstarts a new era. We can beat anybody.
Hello, hello? What's going on? What's all this shouting, we'll have no trouble here!

F*ck Schillachi indeed.
That was glorious.

Brady in tears with his family at the end is as iconic as sight as it comes.

Beat France. Beat England. Beat Spain. Beat Belgium. Beat Trap over the head with the trophy. Get revenge on everybody for everything.

Our first ever tournament win in white.
Unbelievable night, it is right up there with anything that has happened in the past, maybe even better.
Not only the result but the performance, we dominated the match and the possession, we were not play off scraps and a wing and a prayer.
Anybody got a gif of the goal?
First things first- cursing my luck for only going two games and for those two games to be the first two. That was just phenomenal.
So many good performances. I'm really struggling to complain about someone. Long and Murphy soldiered well and provided us with good outlets. Long stretched the Italians and Murphy's hold-up play was excellent. That was probably their exact respective remit.
But I thought the other 9 were awesome. In particular, though, Brady and Hendrick. Those two lads were awesome. How many times did they drive at the Italian defence with absolutely no fear? Hendrick did it in the opening minutes of the game and was unlucky with his shot. He did it time and time again. Brady did so too and finally got his and our reward. They are really gifted players. Hendrick has been, across the three matches so far, our best player in my book. But the move into the middle for Brady gave him a new lease of life. How gifted can you be to play LB, LM and CM in the bloody Euros?
McClean is a sheer testament to hardwork. He was superb. Liam Brady said he was his MOTM- not for ability but for sheer determination. I'd give it to Robbie Brady but I know what Liam means.
Hats off to Hoolahan. Missing that sitter would have seen him blamed for the draw. He made up for it emphatically with that ball. Great man.
What about O'Neill? Scalps of Italy and Germany. Domination of Sweden and Bosnia. Made Brady and Hendrick undisputed starters. Wait till he gets Jack Byrne into midfield with them behind Long. And Duffy centre back. Christ.
Buffon's a class act.

Keane looked delighted. Incredible scenes at the end.
