The Official Euro 2016 Thread

Before you get carried that was Italy's unmotivated  B team, probably responding to a favour on behalf of Trappatoni.Also I am suspicious about Germany's performance against NI,their finishing was uncharacteristically poor.Wouldnt get too excited,both teams will be sent packing this weekend

Tbf, both teams are just happy that they are still in the competition. Especially in the free state's case where they looked to be out on their hole before tonight.

Did you seriously think Tony that they'd win?? Its great for the players shop windows and all that its great for the fans home and away to watch games like that.... Certainly gives the nation both noryn and south a spring in their steps... So stick your negativity up your fat ass

Some people North and South getting carried away,reality is they won one match each against Italy's B team and a shite Ukraine team.Iceland and Hungary ten times more impressive than both teams.

Wales evens and France 4/9 this weekend.Absolutely golden chance to add one and a half times your money

[Milltown Row2]

Be a few missing Irishmen tonight....

Have you seen Seany?? Last seen at Italy match

 It would be some revenge for Henry to eliminate France in their own tournament..

Iceland is the story of the Games. Roughly a Population of Mayo, Sligo, Leitrim and Roscommon?

When Coleman fouled straight after the kick-off, was anyone else thinking of Overmars in Dublin?

First thing I thought of!

[mrdeeds]

But a much softer version of it.

AZ is right. McGeady gave a lot of ball away cheaply in the last 10 or 15 mins when they were pressing for the goal.

on a night like this its probably best to agree to differ. He's everyone's scapegoat (including mine at times). Took far too much money sitting on the bench in lieu of playing football  but i can only think of of one bad cross tonight. He only had a small role in the goal but he did it properly - thats all i can ask for.

Want to talk about poor - how about long. Yes he gets hammered by defenders but he isn't exactly living up to the song

Without McGeady's contributions in the qualifiers, this Ireland team would have certainly ended up closer to Gibraltar than Germany. While we huffed ad and puffed with midlands agricultural grace  in the first game against Georgia, McGeady pulled that game out of the dead zone with some magic, later in the away game against Germany he was instrumental in setting up the the assist.  Somehow he's lost a lot of his game  since he joined Everton and  when even average player like Ross Wallace  could be ahead of him in the pecking order at Sheffield, a player who was not fit to lace his boots when both were at Celtic.  maybe it's down to injuries or something.
it was great to see him come on  here, his delivery was poor by his standards  but you could see the Italians decided to double on him after a few minutes just in case, he still  has some of  that  oomph that troubles defenders.

AZ can go eat offaly

Yes, but what do the Icelanders have in common?

Yeah, there were a few tasty challenges in the first 5 mins - worked a treat.
