nervy stuff

First attacking backheel from Ireland since Amsterdam 2000?

Utterly unrecognisable from the Belgium game. Or even from most of qualifying

sitting back too much

**tricky_colour** · 26/06/2016, 2:15 PM

we have no outlet

**tricky_colour** · 26/06/2016, 2:16 PM

Great save by Randy.

**texidub** · 26/06/2016, 2:17 PM

Whatever O'Neill said to the team at half-time.. has had a negative effect..

**pineapple stu** · 26/06/2016, 2:17 PM

That's been coming since half time unfortunately

**texidub** · 26/06/2016, 2:18 PM

Ugh. That was on the cards.

**texidub** · 26/06/2016, 2:18 PM

Hopefully now we will start playing again...

**tricky_colour** · 26/06/2016, 2:19 PM

Corner?

Cheats

**SwanVsDalton** · 26/06/2016, 2:19 PM

In all fairness, France have been cranking the pressure. Got too compressed and deep in the middle. McCarthy lose Griezmann?

**pineapple stu** · 26/06/2016, 2:19 PM

How the ****ing hell did the fifth official not see that was a corner?

What the **** does he be looking at all game?

**SwanVsDalton** · 26/06/2016, 2:22 PM

Composure. Not getting drawn to the ball. Staying with your man. Stay on your feet. Take a touch. It's not unknown in underdog teams, but we need to handle pressure better.

Very poor defending.

**texidub** · 26/06/2016, 2:24 PM

Not over by a long shot, this one. Come on Ireland!

**pineapple stu** · 26/06/2016, 2:25 PM

That's the end of that.

France have made us look very very ordinary since half time.

**texidub** · 26/06/2016, 2:26 PM

Ah fook. Thanks ref.

**DeLorean** · 26/06/2016, 2:30 PM

Our defence seem to have disappeared. What was McClean doing when he got inside Rami, he literally just needed to roll it across the goal for Murphy to tap in but gave it to Koscielny instead. Really lacking quality which undoes some of his brilliant work. That wasn't even difficult. I'd snap your hand off for it to stay like this now!
