Agreed.
I saw something on social media about his goal and Obafemiâs goal joining the list of great Irish goals along with Ronnie Whelanâs goal against the USSR at Euro 88.
Fucking glorified friendlies like.

Mark Kennedy v Yugoslavia at Lansdowne was a proper strike

Did Collins miscontrol and have it knocked back into his path by the last defender?
Knocked it from his right foot off his left shin which put him in the clear
It was a good auld goal. But i would say he only bate one fella really, he just ran past the others from a distance. Nice finish was the best of it. He looks a lover player. Hopefully he gets out of Burnley quickly

Vincent Kompany will build a new side around him
Jason Mcateerâs goal to put us two up away to Holland was a fantastic bit of build up play and an outstanding finish

Fuck me, were the exams still going ahead during the matches!?
Getting up early in the morning.
Robbie Keane scored a dinger away to Netherlands back in the day
This was a bloody great goal and as an added bonus it has the late, great John Hall of showjumping fame commentating on it.

Fucking hell. I was in a summer job in a shoe shop at the time. I remember going to Dolanâs Warehouse in Limerick to watch it as I had a day off. They forgot to hand out plastic glasses so when the goal went in, a huge amount of glasses just smashed.
For the Saudi Arabia game, our mean owners wouldnât close the shop even though town was dead. After a while, we all just nipped across the road for an extended break at Nestorâs bar, now long gone.

I saw that at a friendâs flat (cc @backinatracksuit your Spurs drinking pal in Cork) on OâCurry Street in Limerick.
Myself and @Fran watched it in our place of work in Waterford. Our boss set up a crappy tv with terrible reception in his office. As soon as the game ended and it went to an add break, he turns and says âwell i donât know about you guyâs, but im going back to workâ. So off we all toddled to our desks to do boring shit for the afternoon. Friend of mine in the Dublin based office texted to say they had it set up on a big screen outside and were horsing into bottles of beer. We were lucky to get a cornetto from the xtravision store next door. Great times!

That was actually a poor ball from was it Lawrence from the free kick? Skipping across the surface rather than rolled. Probably the greatest goal ever scored all things considered.
