For me the point is this, when you're a small country and things have been crap for the national team for close to a decade, you'll take these minor moments and really OVER enjoy them in some people's eyes.
Because it was a massive comeback, and we may not make the US 2026. SO let's go bananas. And if you had seen me shouting expletives at the TV on Sunday, falling to the ground in tears, out of breath, my wife and kids coming in thinking something bad had happened to me, you'd likely join in 🤣
I go a little bananas when Liverpool do well. but I realized I go completely berserk when Ireland do it. Some of the best moments of my football supporting life have not been trophy wins, but small country wins - beating England in 88, Romania in '90, Italy in 94, drawing with Germany in 2002, and beating Italy's second string in 2016. This was up there. It was 15 crazy minutes.
But yes, no trophies involved. it was full on Moyes Mural time 🤣
