Jesus. Watching the highlights and the jersey makes me feel nostalgic.
And we were pretty crap then. But we were far better than we are now
There were highlights from that game?

Amazing footage.
Is that RDS?

Looks like Dalymount to me.
Edit: Yeah, Dalyer - https://eu-football.info/_match.php?id=5796 They'd lose their other qualification game to the Dutch a month-and-a-half later. If they'd beaten Belgium they'd probably have gone to the World Cup. Belgium went, and were knocked out by Germany in the First Round. The story of an IFS team at Mussolini's World Cup would have been fascinating.

30 years today since Phil Babb, Jason McAteer, and Gary Kellymade their debuts in a 0-0 draw with Russia
A bit nuts that Phil Babb made his debut less than three months before the Italy match at Giants Stadium.
20 years since Liam Miller and Paddy Kenny made their debuts in a 2-1 win over the Czech Republic
Kenny is the 400th player to be capped by the national side
Irwin for me
He was a better peno taker as well
30 years since beating the Dutch 1-0 with a goal from Tommy Coyne
