New thread as the last thread seems to be broken.
absolute heartbreak after an exceptional performance.
Why he asked to come off his legs were gone ?
Mod Edit
Warning issued.
Tuesday night won’t be easy. They put in a huge shift out there tonight, fatigue will be a factor and the late goal was a kick in the teeth.
At least some pride was restored tonight
No. I couldn't dream with that team. We've no quality.
If we made the WC we'd be abysmal.
Tell me you haven’t a clue without telling me ffs 🙄 If he stays on his line he has no chance of saving it with that pace on the ball from 10 yards. He has to come for it. The ball is coming from the attackers side and he gets there first because of that
Only for Kelleher this would of been at least 3 or 4 were brutal
They could hardly manage an attack.
I'd be upset if they were a good team. Late goals are always scored.
They did their best but are really, really limited.
Exactly. All crying and emotional on here. But that team aren't good enough.
They did their best but that's an expected given.
Let's be real we are miles off qualifying. Can't fault the effort but we have zero quality
No midfield at all.
And defenders that insist on bonking aimless headers up the pitch when they have time to take the ball down
Jesus these interviews are pure sh!te
lads coming in to give a kicking minutes after a performance like that… honestly, why even watch?
Peter Collins - Jake O Brien man of the match and honourable mentions to Ryan Manning and Nathan Collins. Ehhhhhh Seamus Coleman?
Goal scorer Neves was wearing Jota’s No. 21 tonight.
So I guess it was destined to end like this….
Exactly.
They played to their best. Which you expect of them.
Portugal are topping the group with ease and weren't great tonight.
You've some poster saying you have to set up to defend tonight, fair enough. He was imploying we have an attacking game. Ffs we couldn't even beat Armenia with our more attacking game!
Thought we did well for what we are. Some excellent defending and not the usual panic we're used to.
The better team won. I have no complaints about that.
If the team applied themselves like they did tonight for the last few games I'd be happy with that.
Kelleher penalty save & at least two saves which kept us level. Actually I would have given it to him.
This post deserves more than just a thanks.
Can't believe with all the RTE cutbacks they are still paying that tool.
JOB honestly saying he didn't have a clear view of the penalty incident yet he repeated the question to him 3 times
Why because I'm calling our team for the limited one we are?
Grow up child😅 The game is 90min long plus injury time.
If boards survive, they should look to include a range of emojis to reflect readers reactions.
Himself or Manning to me.
Manning was all the things I said this morning that Ireland are lacking.
Gutted that we lost, and also that we didn’t bring this energy to Yerevan
Portugal and thier late goals :/
But now if we can beat armenia at home and Portugal beat Hungary at home this Tuesday, Portugal qualify for WC. So the silver lining of that goal is we could be playing a qualified team at home in November who haven't much to play for. Also our goal difference was not battered tonight
#think positively#
Studio mystified why Coleman came off. Are they not listening to the commentary where Houghton says Colemans looking to come off his done.
Shame we didn’t hold out for the draw. Good defensive performance from the team.
It's never that simplistic. The second half of the Hungary game sapped a lot of energy out of players and you could see some were feeling it in the humidity in Yerevan with the quick turn around.
Possibly should have freshened the team up for that one in hindsight.
