Almost feel it is too soon to be ahead!
WE need another!

Beats our first ever finals goal as our quickest ever finals goal. Don't remember many faster in any game tbh, bar 13 seconds v Hungary in O'Leary's testimonial, which wasn't a full international.
Brady only the second player to score more than once at a finals tournament.
We do appear to have woken the dragon though.
Revenge????
Holy ****.
we are in to 50-1 for the trophy
We hvae found a shape that works for us, Coleman booked
Martin O Neil can't believe it look bewildered
Hendrick hobbling
Get Whelan on!
Hendrick playing a stormer here!
Long! Corner!
Hendrick with a second utterly retarded booking of the tournament and will miss the next match. Don't know does that carry over to qualifying if we lose here?
That was the best 45 mins from an O'Neill team of ours, disciplined, controlled and total intelligence at play.
We just have to keep on with the high pressing in to the 2nd half.
Must be a record nr of cards dished out already?
Brilliant first half. Composed, skillful, hungry... great to see an Irish team play like this.
A bit premature but I'm a bit gutted about that suspension. A black mark on an otherwise brilliant first half. Kante suspension a blow as well if we lose.
McCarthy excellent as well, his kind of game. No obvious weakness in our team at all again today. Ward and Murphy surprising everybody again I think (presume).
Colossal.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
I think we're struggling to keep it but our advantage is that they are looking to hit Giroud which suits our two CBs. I'd be concerned if they run more at us and play short passes close to our goal.
I'm having kittens watching this. Really not enjoying it, but loving it at the same time. I'd just like to fast-forward to the result.
Sweet baby Jesus and the donkeyrino...
This is so on. Super first half. Just want to see us show the composure needed to see this out. If we wern't snatching at crosses and chances that half could have been even better - I'm thinking specifically of Hendrick when he had loads of time in the box to cut the ball back after Murphy's shot and some crosses from Coleman/Ward.
Just calm it down. We can feckin do this.
Ou-est le Centre George Pompidou?
Murphy has been good, but I'd still rather Walters up there.
However, we do still have him and Wes to come off the bench. And at least they've a game to come into, compared to if they came on against Belgium.
Also, the home crowd has really quietened. They'll be up for it again the next ten minutes - if we can hold on through that, I reckon the crowd will start to get on France's backs.
Coman on now for Kante.
My heart won't take this.
