For those who have a country, hard to better witnessing your country win a big game even if technically it was not the best football.

Ireland v Holland 2001  Keane's last hurray, a perfect day.

the rest in order of time
Irl 3 Russia 0   1974,  Brady's debut, took over playmaker CM from Giles who went into holding role, almost bigger impact than the stunning result. Rock and Roll.
Irl 1 France 0  1977   Brady genius,  we had a dream.  
Irl 2 Holland 1  1979 Lansdowne gale & semi darkness, win orchestrated by Brady.

Irl 3 France 2   1981       When Brady had yer man in his pocket all game long
Irl 2        Bulg 0 1987      Brady master performance then gets sent off, game sealed qualification but it was a secret.

Bulg O   Scotland 1    1987      ;D


Best game on TV
Brazil 1 England 0    World cup Mexico, slow motion excellence.
