Ireland suffered their first defeat in Euro 2016 qualification thanks to Shaun Maloney’s brilliant goal….
Scotland ran out deserved winners at Parkhead this evening thanks to a cracking 75th minute goal from Shaun Maloney.
Despite a late flurry from Ireland there are probably very few people who could argue with the eventual outcome and here’s what Twitter had to say about the match.
Shenanigans! I call Shenanigans!! Gutted for the boys in Green but Fair play Scotland! Great goal so Hats off we will see ye in

As goals go, Maloney’s was both delightful and significant. #SCOIRL — Gary Lineker (@GaryLineker) November 14, 2014
Ireland all sound and fury, no pause for thought – and certainly no craft like Maloney displayed. Scotland touch more sophisticated.

Richard Keogh was Ireland’s best player tonight in my opinion — Conor O Shea (@ConorOShea10) November 14, 2014
It’s exhausting. Being Irish. The weight of history. The self-doubt. The constant analysis. The wind.

Don't worry, they'll vote against actually going to the Euros at the last minute. #SCOIRL
