Job done again.
Mc Geady and Stephen Kelly were useless, Doyle was harshly sent off and Cox controlled the ball with his arm just before the Armenian goalie was sent off.
The Armenians scored a comical own goal and their sub goalies blunder gifted Dunne our second goal.
As usual we made it hard for ourselves by conceding a soft goal just after we had gone 2-0 up.
But all of that is irrelevant. The fact is we won 2-1 against a highly rated Armenian side and are now in the play offs for the Euro Finals.
Life is good!!!!!!!!!!!
Get in there you beauty!!!!

McGeady was utterly useless.
And compared to most I'm a trap fan but I was amazed he took Cox and not Doyle off. Not that it really matters as he was suspended anyway.
O'Shea, Cox and Duff were our best players imo and all 3 subs impressed.

McGeady is one of the most overrated players I have ever seen. It should be Duff and Hunt on the wings every time
Hopefully Ireland are seeded, I don't fancy their chances against any of the big boys on tonight's showing.

That's good to know, still I would want to avoid Bosnia of the 4 teams that can possibly be drawn. Montenegro and Estonia should be beatable and Turkey will be really tough but Bosnia are real dark horses, for me they will do well if they qualify to the finals.

Very naieve not taking Doyle off as he was brutal tonight and all he was doing was fouling for the previous 10 mins. I'm glad he's out as I rate him behind Long and Walters and now Cox!! Doyle's hugely overrated, not remotely prolific and gets loads of praise coz he defends from the front. Ye could stick Richard Dunne up front and he'd score as many as Doyle

I agree len, Doyle is not in the best of form at the moment. What about Walters?? He really impressed me when he came on. You can see he's really hungry to get his place in the team.

So, are Ireland through or are they just through to a play-off?
