Ireland v Germany B at Dalymount

The B international against Scotland has reminded me of this game. We scored in the last minute to win 1-0. Our first team against their B team. Anyone else remember this game? It was around the late 70's. Some moron right in front of me threw a whisky bottle at the German goalkeeper. Don Givens picked it up and threatened to come up and sort the clown out. Can't remember any Gardai being involved.

I don't remember it. What ticked off your memory? Scotland - scotch - whiskey - bottle.

Team: Paddy Roche, Joe Kinnear, Mick Martin, Eoin Hand, Tony Dunne, Noel Campbell, Gerry Daly, Liam Brady, Steve Heighway, Ray Treacy, Don Givens.

Germans arived expecting to play a B team, found we were playing our first team. Was listed as B international, but was upgraded several years later and caps were awarded.
