    The Irish crowd are fairly noisy

    The Irish starting to commit a couple of more players forward - About time!

    They have to take the few chances they are given

    Another corner. C’mon!

    Sheva was nervous all match, thought Denise would step up more but maybe that tackle the other day has had an impact on the 50/50s. Payne, show some composure 🤦

    far too slow on the break

    Polkinghorne is the most Irish looking person on the pitch



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 867 ✭✭✭Denny61


    This is horrendous stuff to watch. Hardly any skill levels in irish team..reminds me of jack charltons irish side. Hoof ball and kick it anywhere and defend like crazy.

    So close



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 445 ✭✭Will_I_Amnt


    Irish ladies deserve a goal for their spirit but maybe not their quality.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,470 ✭✭✭MOH


    "Offside" ? Commentary is woeful



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,745 ✭✭✭✭lawred2


    Despite the commentators' thoughts otherwise, those corners were shoite



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,662 ✭✭✭KaneToad


    Plenty of effort. Good fitness. But skill seems to be lacking. Lots of floaty lofty crosses and shots.

    Free kick was nicely struck.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,491 ✭✭✭robwen


    Is Amber Barrett injured surely u bring her on



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,381 ✭✭✭Nerdlingr


    pity it took them having to go a goal down before they went for it, theyre really putting up to the ozzies now. we just dont have a finisher...or anyone in a centre forward position!.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,745 ✭✭✭✭lawred2


    They've had two great chances there in the 7th minute of added time. Both poor enough attempts

    amazing what a change there is when you play mc cabe in a position where she can affect the game. shes lost at left back.



  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 12,477 Mod ✭✭✭✭Say Your Number


    Unlucky, could have easily got a draw out of that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 223 ✭✭Sadler Peak


    Jaysus Austrailia just fell off after going 1 up.

    Was it nerves ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,042 ✭✭✭✭Beechwoodspark




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,260 ✭✭✭amacca


    Jack Charltons side were way better imo.... almost in spite of the hoof it up tactics....when they got it up there they frequently kept it there for significant amounts of time...it didn't come straight back bypassing an almost non existent midfield.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,381 ✭✭✭Nerdlingr


    barrett must be bulling to not get a run out. crying out for a finisher.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,395 ✭✭✭✭Furze99


    Try listening to 2FM instead of the TV - we played brilliantly and were hard done by. Deserved a draw and penalty was very soft. Loads of positives to take away and created a legacy. Heartened by the performance etc etc



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,381 ✭✭✭Nerdlingr


    poor first half (possession wise) but they really went for it the last half an hour after Australia scored. loads of corners and free kicks and could easily (and deservedly) equalized. defence was strong just lacking that finisher up front, also need to play McCabe in midfield.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,023 ✭✭✭StevenToast


    At least they made the 90mins without walking off the pitch...

    I'd say the Irish player got caught ball watching and then all of a sudden she was on top of the Aussie. It didn't look like a push, it looked like a player who was trying to stop herself from falling and used the player in front of her to do so.


    Still a peno. Just unfortunate.


    Poor girl, you could see she was heartbroken
