    Not sure what match the pundits on ITV's highlights programme tonight were watching ,Glen Hoddle thought it was like two heavyweight boxers going head to head and slugging it out whilst Tony Pulis labelled the match as a "great match".

    It WAS a great contest. Tough and high paced and could have gone either way at times. Very entertaining really.

    Yeah definitely a lot of revision gone on post match. I really enjoyed it even though I was obviously disappointed with the result.

    We were by far the better team against Spain as it was, had that gone differently....

    I thought Span were harshly treated, soft penos against them

    Nothing harsh about it. Shirt swapping is supposed to go on after the game.

    It was an average Championship match, entertaining maybe but the quality of football wasnt there from alot of players on both sides

    We could have went very very far in that group, Had the whole Saipan brigade never happened the sky was the limit. Handy route to the final.

    Dead right. We could of easily ended up in a final. Even without keane that group did well lost out on luck against the Spanish. I remember Duff that game absolutely tormented Spain all evening.

    There were a fair few Championship players on the pitch don't forget. ;)

    It wasn't high quality but **** - the Championship is one of the most entertaining and closely contested leagues in the world. I don't think they were wrong to call it a great match anyway, it was.

    Yes, the standard wasnt a surprise, its about the level of the two teams to be honest. I didnt enjoy it, but I rarely "enjoy" Ireland games what with the constant fear that comes with them.

    It reminded me of the Austria game under Trap, alot of long balls and effort but lacking quality

    Ain't that the truth, well said! :) Even if Ireland played like Spain I think I'd find watching them a panicky and uncomfortable experience.
