    Result of the night. Slap it up the people on here who didn't give us a chance! Ronaldo who? GAWA!

    Great result for NI, gives them something to build on, but result of the night belongs to the Swedes, 4-0 with 30 mins to go away to Germany.

    Did you take a punt on the -4 in the end?

    barely hanging on at the end, Portugal should have won that 3 or 4-1

    Nope. :o

    Went with Belgium -1, Croatia -1, Germany -1. Think its was 7's.

    Went to the bookies and put €5 on a 8 team accum but Spain let me down on that one, not great odds either way, think it was 12/13's.

    Had so many bets in my head that when I went their I forgot about my Portugal one, thankfully.

    It's hardly a small minority. Their largest fan forum put this up as their banner image before the French game a few years back.

    Football fans poke fun at rival neighbour shocker.

    Anyway - great effort from Norn Iron. And the fact the result jars with one or two bigoted begrudgers on here is a nice bonus.

    you are not our rivals mate, where are you lot in the world rankings now?

    Really?

    So a vital qualifier between the two Irelands in Dublin wouldn't be, say, a little extra feisty then?

    Granted, NI tend to see the Republic as more of a rival than vice-versa, but that's usually the case with smaller countries. The Scots do it with England all the time. Ditto Austria with Germany.

    World rankings mean very little in reality. It's what you do on the pitch, such as last night.

    Nice result. Pity it's ruined by that Luxembourg game. Would have actually been able to have an outside chance.

    Great result for Nothern ireland. O'Neill will do a good job there. He will have them organised and hard to beat. They may not qualify, they are in a hard group, but they'll be no pushovers.

    They have to beat Azerbaijan now.
