Those last 2 pens were dreadful weren't they.

Crap

I don’t think I’ve seen a more gormless expression on a face as that on manning’s at the end there. What a doufus.

 

[cronullasharks]

Damn

Great World Cup that - enjoyed it!

 

[tantavisiteler]

was rooting for Bosnians and the Irish, the latter wasn't meant to be, damn they deserved it more, had better chances

They'll be battered by Denmark

 

[Drico]

That was a team there tonight that didn't know how to win. Two up in 25, a penalty to be one kick or save from victory, and they still found a way to lose.

Overall, a good campaign but we've had enough sob stories.

Very poor second half...shocking last 2 penalties. Very little quality in midfield unfortunately which is a shame because ireland has a solid defense and talented attackers.

 

[Parker]

That Manning foul for the pen at 2 nil was absolutely criminal.

Errors like that are too easily brushed away in the Irish love for a sob story. We'll enjoy feeling sorry for ourselves tonight and nothing will be learned. That game was thrown away tonight by players who couldn't handle the basics.

The worst of it? That Czech side is genuinely absymal. Denmark will blow them away.

Spot on...the winning mentality was missing tonight

Give it over. You've been wishing an Ireland loss all week.

Penalties are a lottery.
