Did you see the Ireland V Italy qualification for the World Cup?

Ireland stunned the world champions in Bari when Keane snatched an 87th-minute equaliser to ensure the race for top spot in Group Eight is still alive.

    Yes, it was a good game to watch if you were an Irish fan. I did feel that the sending off of the Italian in the first few minutes was a bit of an over-reaction, probably brought about by the blood flowing from the Irishman, but the replay clearly showed that it was not an intentional strike by the Italian, and if anything, the Irish player charged into the Italian's arm. Still, that's football, and the Irish deserved a point after the great goal from Keane. I look forward to seeing the Republic of Ireland's next game!!

    yes congrats, but remember, Italy held a 1-0 lead against them for the entire match while playing the whole match with a man short. I still think Ireland will come second to italy in the group

    Yes, and man, the Irish rock ! ! !

    Personally, I was expecting a defeat on Italian grounds. I think this should boost Irish morale and momentum.

    Italy will always qualify, on top or lackluster. The issue, as usual, is who will qualify WITH them.

    Obviously the IRISH ! ! ! !
