Ireland Vs Croatia Match Thread

[Mattshark]

True because it became this stupid second phase didn't it?

Makes sense, such horrendous clearances that they go backwards deserve punishment!

[McDermotX]

Second phase bull****.............never mind the fact the player already has the advantage because of his infraction in the initial play.
Happens all the time in football anyway.
Ward can actually be aggrieved about not getting a free out as he tried to clear it......seemed to get his foot hooked.

Mandzukic 3-1

3-1 Croatia - Mandzukic again

[Gibbo]

Jammy ****ers! Well worked goal

[Chazza]

[McDermotX]

Another freak goal, although it may have bounced in if Given weren't there.

And that should be that

Ireland out of Euro2102

Shame for Ireland but thats what happens when you dont have one quality player, done amazing to qualify.

[spanky]

not just that, we're normally solid but either nerves or stage fright has taken hold

Im surprised McLean isn't playing.

Bilic has Croatia playing some nice football, wouldn't mind seeing him try it at club level.

Yep, I think he'd be perfect for West Ham.
