Romping home!

Great win that cunt tector fell over the line
Well done mate. Didn’t get to see any of it but sounds like a terrific win for your boys. A good scalp to beat the World Champions.

I don’t think an Irish team has deservedly beaten the world champions before
We must give honourable mention to Tipp’s Shane Long v Germany in 2015 but that is all I can think of.
Didn’t we beat the World Champions in a warm up game before USA94?
That was death by a thousand cuts then getting lucky once, not a huge run chase
What year did we beat Italy in a friendly under Trap? It was on in France or somewhere?
A 2-0 win. Were Italy still world champions at the time?
Friendlies hardly count. Deservedly is a key parameter here
