Remember a time when defeating Germany was second nature to us?
If you answered yes, you are either a liar or delusional because that time never existed.
Victories over the Germans come around about as often as a dodgy Volkswagen something that doesn’t happen very often. So much so, that we are still celebrating our last win which was way back in 1994.
If you are too young to remember that wonderful day, let us show you our five favorite moments from RTE’s brilliant analysis of the game.
“Young Kelly does extremely well here.”
The Drogheda dynamo was barely 20 when he assisted and scored here. The first of many great memories we’ve gotten from the former Leeds player.
“High class goal against world class opposition”
It’s a while since we’ve heard anyone say that about Ireland…
“Let’s relax and enjoy that goal”
Classic Billo demonstrating why we all miss him so much. He is relaxed as ever in this great clip.
Is it Brazil in disguise?
Hopefully there’ll be a few more moments of magic like this one.
John Giles’ perm
Salt and pepper magnificence. Before anyone says anything, yes I am jealous…
