  1. Hell of a performance.
    Caught the second half when i got home from Wembley and Ireland were immense. Quick ball aggressive defense and an 80 minute performance even when AB’s started to come back into the game around the 60 minute mark.
    Also special mention for Joey Carbery 20 minutes on debut against agaijnst the world champs and didn’t look out of place
