    And the final match is probably the toughest of the knock-outs to be honest - two fairly iconic goals going head-to-head. Jason McAteer A v Holland, 2000 and Mark Kennedy H v Yugoslavia, 1999. It's the last time we'll see one of them in this competition...

    Staunton & Long

    Staunton "the man from Dundalk" but Drogheda born when Ireland manager.

    These last two pairs are most difficult to decide upon.

    Keane & McAteer.

    I think one of those two goals v Netherlands should go into the next round.

    I think you're one round behind osarusan - Doyle/Harte battle is just after ending, and I presume the Keane you mean is v Holland as opposed to v Israel?

    Late to the party but that Tony Grealish goal for me is a joy, all the more for having never seeing it before. Shoulda won :-)

    So two more through to the final 16 - Ray Houghton N v Italy, 1994 sees off Steve Staunton A v Malta, 1999 7-4, while osarusan saved Robbie Keane A v Holland, 2000 from a whitewash against Shane Long H v Germany, 2015, but 10-1 is still a fairly conclusive win.

    The last round of 32 ties are still open - Robbie Keane H v Israel, 2005 holds a 3-1 lead over Liam Brady H v Brazil, 1987, while it's level at 2-2 in the tie between Jason McAteer A v Holland, 2000 and Mark Kennedy H v Yugoslavia, 1999. Votes taken till 6ish to complete the last 16 line-up.

    Again as the place is quieter at the weekends, I'll probably hold off until Monday before starting the last 16. But would be looking then at the last 16 on Mon-Weds, the quarters on Thurs-Fri, and the semis and final the week after.

    Probably also worth looking at introducing reasons for your vote from the last 16 just to get a bit more chat going! Maybe a recommendation for the last 16 and we'll see how it works out.

    Ok, working backwards...

    McAteer over Kennedy
    Robbie Keane over Brady
    Keane over Long
    Staunton over Houghton

    Pineapple Stu, in post 380, you said it's Robbie Brady against Liam Brady, but the goal is Ian harte. And above in post 392, you said it's Robbie Keane leading Brady. That should be Harte again right?

    In my case, I'm trying to exclude the significance of the occasion but include the quality of opposition, but sometimes a strike is just so sweet the opposition doesn't matter (so I voted (too late) for Staunton over Houghton).

    I voted for Keane over Long as Keane's goal was really well worked whereas Long was a good finish after a hopeful punt. If you take away the occasion (the only goal against Germany) I don't think it's that great a goal, but so be it.

    I can see my own pattern of preferring well-worked goals over long strikes coming though.

    No - should be Robbie Keane (not Robbie Brady), but it's in the same game as the Ian Harte goal.

    So the embedded link can't start at the right time automatically, but if you click on the link under the embedded video, you'll get the goal.

    My mistake on that though; I'll correct it now.

    Robbie Keane and Jason McAteer for the last two matches.

    Last one is tough but the two back flicks in the build up to the shot were incredible and McAteer took it well on his weaker left foot.

    2002 qualifiers were probably my favourite time following the team. For the first time we were playing good football while being successful as well. Would love to see us get back to that under Kenny.

    Interesting. We've definitely had better, just depends what they were paired against I suppose. Actually, Robbie Brady got a beaut against the USA, I assume that made the original cut but can't remember seeing it.
