Listening to this on RTE and the co commentator on there has just said Erikson has had far more touches than he had the whole ninety minutes in the away game and he has torn us apart.
Not able to watch it but it sounds like Ireland have been more open than we all expected but I don't know why they'd do that.
Just said "if you're going to die you might as well die on your shield", says it all.

The 2nd goal was a breakaway from an Irish error, a sweeping upfield move with CE unmarked and ready to pull the trigger.
In off the underside of the bar but clinical.
