Awful result
Saturday's 5-2 defeat in Cyprus may not, statistically, have been the biggest loss in Ireland's 80 years of national-team football - that was a 7-0 friendly thrashing by Brazil in 1982 - but the debacle in Nicosia is being regarded as the worst result Ireland have ever produced. Winger Damien Duff labelled the performance a "joke" and the outcome "devastating". Captain Robbie Keane described it as "the worst night of my football career".

Definatly the worst Irish performance i can remember. The Irish national team built a great reputation in the last 20 years but they ruined it all in one evening. Teams used to dread playing us especially at home but i'm afraid even San Marino will fancy their chances against us!! Hope we're not humiliated further by Czech Rep tomorrow night. Our worst ever result was 0-6 against Austria in qualifing for Euro 72 as far as i remember
