Republic of Ireland WNT - We're all part of Vera and Tony O'Donoghues Army

The girls put in a good finish there, could easily have had 2 or 3. Were they eventually let off the leash?

RTE2 now

You have to see this fucking defending

Penalty conceded comically

Penalty scored

Horrific.

Ah jaysis

One of the England extended panel asleep in the stand there. Cant say I blame her

The celebrations for the consolation goal :grin:

Julie Ann Russell is the only Moycullener I respect. A big congrats on her fantastic finish tonight.

Why do you feel so superior to women’s sport?

The Fahey girl, a great servant for sure but she can barely run. Had a couple yards headstart on 1 of the English in 1st half and was easily beaten. Then looked like she was going backwards against the tide.

If I scored a goal in the last minute to get it back to two one, I would get the ball and head back to the centre circle looking for an equaliser. I wouldn’t waste time and celebrate like I’d just scored the winner. I’m not anti women, just anti idiocy.

Vehemently anti things you consider idiotic. Like a grandmother posting a card for a child through a letter box. It’s reflex misogyny pal.

Huh??

Apparently the goal was important in terms of seeding for the playoff draw. They now have a superior goal difference to Poland who are the nearest opponent in preventing a home draw. Once they avoid a shellacking from France on Tuesday evening it should prove enough.

Nasty stuff. Covid was a difficult time and it’s best leave it where it is now.

They shoulda defended a bit fucking better for the second goal so :joy:

In fairness to Russell she worked a real job at Microsoft for years, moved back from Oz, had a child, ran a marathon almost immediately afterwards, started playing with an amateur Galway United side and wouldn’t have expected a call-up in a million years nevermind scoring against the tanettes. It was the last kick of the game anyways so I wouldn’t have much issue with them celebrating the moment.

That attitude is why we win fuck all.

We’re a nation of useless cunts. Embracing that insurmountable K2 of a mountain will bring a lovely zen state of mind.

Yeah that’s a nice story in fairness. Especially playing in a low profile loi and only having a child a year ago. Fair play to her. Well taken goal too.
