McClean should be taken off here. Offering nothing and then caps it off by getting himself booked against a bunch of postmen and brickies.
Quite worried about this game now. Should be in front but Gibraltan packing the defence means everything is a frustrating crapshoot in the box. Wind and pitch making things difficult, McClean losing his cool. Would take a 1-0 now!

We've been here before and eked out wins. It's Georgia I'm getting more concerned about, although conditions will be better at home
We have zero presence at CM, still we're getting closer. Gibraltar are set up well, a good minnow team considering the club standard of their players.
They're technically decent in our half, and inept in their own. We need to pressure them more; win possession back higher up the pitch. And keep the ball better!
If we get a goal it's all over as they'll never score, but we are really struggling to break down 10/11 men. Wind seems to be more swirling than going in one direction, so I'm not sure how different it will be in the second half.
Surely we can find a way through.
Playing with the wind in the second half? Bring on Travers!

I think they are still traumatised about Roy shouting at them last year. They will turn into fantastic footballers as soon as they get the cuddle treatment.
Randolph seriously saving our bacon there, and Hendrick probably wins the game at the other end a minute later. This game turns quick.

Nice goal. First of many hopefully!
I see we're using our patented donut formation again.
At least Mick looks worried. This would be all according to plan for O'Neill. Give them the ball = good
This is atrocious
Think the under 19’s would have done better against this lot. We should stop picking players who are not good enough and start rebuilding with players who might be good enough.
They'll fancy an equaliser here
Stepped off big time since the goal, which is dumb. Get the feeling the team wants out of this overseas territory as fast as possible, and their heads are already on the plane.
