This is depressing so far. For the first time I'm seeing Lansdowne Road dominated by away supporters. This is the team that the media wanted and as I expected, the reality is very different from pundits tiki take fantasies.
They're done, not qualifying. Needed to get a point in Glasgow and a win here. Only a miracle at this stage.
I think Ireland deserved a victory. There was unlucky scenes. if Iam not mistaken; two time hit the post. If that chances went in, now maybe we talk about a possible 3 points…. Over all: it was not luck this single point… it was deserved .Ireland did push hard even in the last final whistle of the game effort. If more class finishing it could be 2-1 at least. Poland played good first half. Ireland played good second half. That was the my final view for this game. ps: I believe Ireland will push till the last game last minute. Good luck. Regards,
