FAI...June 2024 Friendlies v Hungary and Portugal

Looking at the otter groups and the second place team in our section stands a good chance of missing out on play off spot as worst placed second team. At the minute our total of 12 (If Serbia win or draw) would put us joint bottom.

Wales 1 up.

I think I would like a Wales win. It would put Serbia behind us by a point going into the clash with us in Landsdowne in September. It is all about winning the group as someone else said, the second place team in this group might well miss out because it is a competitive group.

1-1 now

Checked again there and my memory is failing me, two other groups 2nd place are lower and we're level with another group.

Teams that are tied are decided on goal difference but is there something about the results against the bottom team are omitted?

[JPGJOHNNYG]

Georgia next beat them and if wales and Austria draw then we are 6 points clear of both them with 3 games to go including a home game against Moldova ie almost guaranteed second. Georgia though could be a banana skin, just ask the Scots.

just when you think Ireland are improving they produce that performance

worst team line up I have seen in a long time

Seamus Coleman has nearly been carrying the team

[Capt Pat]

Just seen a replay on youtube of Duffys goal that was disallowed and still don't understand how the ref gave a free out.

[An Watcher]

Feel that if Duffy hadn't have went for it Walters would have scored

Duffy led with the arm and jumped into the Austrian player before he contacted the ball.

It was a foul.

[Taylor]

Foul all day long.

Didnt play well enough to deserve 3 points so cant complain. We were terrible for large parts of first half.

Going to go right to the wire in this group. Feel we wont qualify automatically

[Esmarelda]

The performance was embarrassing enough without then claiming to be robbed.
Fair play to the fans that consistently part with their cash to watch that. Hard enough on the TV.

This is the world of international football, most of it if not all of it is utter tripe.
