That McLean tackle - commentator literally said ‘he’s won the ball, the game’s gone’ :grinning:

Can’t believe I’ll have to wait three years to see Ireland play another properly competitive game.

MY FUCKING HEART

Not to be a “little weasel”, but:

Republic of Ireland v Northern Ireland playoff game would be good

Italy put nine past Armenia. Jaysus

Would be top shabs but I’d worry about crowd trouble. If it happened and there were no shenanigans I’d be delighted though.

This assumes that football will reach its natural conclusion at Euro 2020 (probably not a bad shout tbh)

In typical Scotland style now the pressure is off we will probably look vaguely convincing but don’t count us out to finish 5th in a group with Cyprus and Kazakhstan in it

How are these playoffs even determined? 16 teams? Scotland get a crack even if they finish 5th below Cyprus and Kazakstan? Must have something convuluted to do with the Nations League but this is real galaxy brain stuff from UEFA.

yeah, Sotland already qualified for the playoffs via Nations League

Its because we won our league C group at league of nations and so we have play offs against the other winners unless they qualified already then it falls to the next team in the group? Idk.

Get this explainer in ya

TLDR: don’t think about it or question it basically
