If Irish people suported local teams like Boehmians, Bray, Dundalk, Cork City instead of pumping the money into the English premiership through sky sports subscriptions we'd easily we'd have a better talent pool with a system to grow home talent.
@@bryanmcdonnell6899 Better talent pool but not much better. Other sports are too entrenched in Ireland. We are kidding ourselves thinking we can compete with the best in Europe never mind further afield.
First, 7 days vs 4 days to begin with. Secondly, that teams who won their group (especially the hosts) get a favorable treatment against 3rd-placed teams is only fair. Thirdly, if you feel like whining against the organizers and UEFA, you can always remember that - given that you've qualified in 3rd place of your qualifyng group and through the playoffs - you would never have even participated in the Euro if the competition had not been extented that year from 16 to 24 teams. Loved the Irish team in this competition nonetheless.
Im not Irish but if wish i were irish. I think Ireland did a great work in this match It is that france Are just too good for Ireland . But Ireland never gave up. This is to you people from Ireland yoy can be proude to be Irish
I remember the French dominating us in the second half bar one half chance late on. Rewatching this, my memory was correct but at least the tournament banished the ghosts of Euro 2012
I’ve seen a good few Irish goals celebrated in my pub over the years but that brady pen will always stick out. While everyone loved it there was an awful feeling around the place of this is way to early
Remember this, was on holidays in Cyprus at the time. I though Ireland did well in the first half, it looked like a shock was on the cards. France just went up a level or two in the second half and Ireland couldn’t live with them. James McLean though, what a chance that was. He never seemed to have the ability to look up before crossing a ball.
To be fair to McClean none of the other irish players would have gotten into that position in the first place. He powered past the right back. Agreed end product is shocking but that's what you get with mcClean.
@@RichardCummins1988 we are a nation that simply enjoys ourselves abroad and doesn’t start fights when our team lose or boo every other national anthem. We were literally dubbed the best fans of the tournament, read a book.
@@TheOriginalEwan I never said we're not good, we are however band wagoners to the max. We don't support LOI and then piss and moan that we don't produce the players. I just wish we had the same enthusiasm for the national team and LOI outside of tournaments
@@RichardCummins1988 do you suppirt a league in the LOI??? sure not enough irish people support it but the fai dont fund it enough aswell, its a 2 way street, for people to want to support it, it has to be intriguing to them, their needs to be better tv licensing, better advertiding, better youth investment and better match facilities
We did so well to get this far, but can't help but think if it weren't for 10 minutes of madness we would have played Iceland in a Quarter-Final and god knows what would have happened after that, only ifs and buts though
What a team we had, hopefully we can get back up to that level for the remaining World Cup qualifiers, imagine the scenes if we beat Portugal at the Aviva to qualify🙏🙏
How annoying is Tony O' Donoghue's attitude in the Coleman interview?? "Congratulations"?? They lost!! As if Seamus was gonna be there with a big smile on his face!
Imagine we won this then faced Iceland which we could’ve beaten then Germany in the semis who we already bet in the qualifiers so who’s to say we couldn’t do it again then Portugal in the final who I honestly think we had a good chance of beating on our day
I'm an England fan and I did a sweepstake at school for Euro 2016 and I got Belgium so I was upset when they got beat by Wales but I was secretly happy cause I want Home Nations to do well
Portugal will teach Ireland a lesson in September, for the world cup qualifiers, I'm Irish, I was delighted France sent the long ball specialist home, you have to admit it, every time Ireland play classy sides they always get the shite knocked out of them, even Luxembourg are too good for Ireland, stick to hurly and gaelic football. Instead of supporting England castoffs.....
We don’t think we’re good, our fans showed up for this match cuz they love their country and for the craic of it all, we were expecting to loose 2 or 3 nil
If you were Irish, you’d know we don’t have that mentality whatsoever, every fan wishes best on their team and will show up to support them wherever it is and whatever competition too. Ridiculous comment lol
The Irish did very well to hold their own for as long as they could against a dangerous French side who has an extra week's rest before this game and who would go on to be World Champions two years later. From one Irishman to another, you should be ashamed of yourself for your ridiculous comment there. I would like to see YOU do any better. 👎👎👎🙄
When Brady scored the penalty it felt like we were gonna to win the euros
Thats just true thou
We could have went to the semis cus we could have beat Iceland maybe
Ye
@@username-mf4mu maybe then we could've beaten Germany and than maybe beaten Portugal in the final and then maybe won the Euros guess we'll never know
I remember watching this game live in school I'm Irish I live in Ireland and Griezmann broke my heart.
We had a great euros ngl. Put up a great fight against France, great performance against Sweden and a classic win against Italy
Great tournament yes but we only scored 3 goals 😆
It been along time France play in the sun at home
we are shite
@@mcivor321 Better than us Scots 😂
Great euros you really have low expectations in life
Duffy 100% did the right thing in taking the red card 2-1 is better than 3-1. Proud of the boys on this day.
Should have been marking Griezmann for the second goal. Watch Seamus Coleman chastise him for it.
griezmann was fucking unbelievable in this tournemount
But missed many chances though
If Ireland payed like this we’d be playing in the euros next week easily
and thats fact
If Irish people suported local teams like Boehmians, Bray, Dundalk, Cork City instead of pumping the money into the English premiership through sky sports subscriptions we'd easily we'd have a better talent pool with a system to grow home talent.

Seven days rest Vs 48 hours rest. Delighted Portugal beat them in the final.
Ah feck off, France are a different class to us.

@@jimbobxyz4699 Delusional.

after brady scored the penalty i thought that we’d win 4-0 and go on the maddest run ever

@A A R 0 Nツ ok
We where hammered, 2 1 was flattering. We are now a team there , to make up the numbers.
I remember the French dominating us in the second half bar one half chance late on. Rewatching this, my memory was correct but at least the tournament banished the ghosts of Euro 2012
This is probably the best match ever
What a run we had in 2016. England would cry if they got knocked out at this stage but this was the highlight of my childhood. What a run 🇮🇪
The crazy thing is if we won this we would've faced Iceland in the quarter final so we would've had a huge chance of making it to the semi finals
Yeah and then Germany...
@@danno2777 Who we’d beat and drawn with in qualifying👀
On another day we'd have knocked them out. Great performance on the day!!
I’ve seen a good few Irish goals celebrated in my pub over the years but that brady pen will always stick out. While everyone loved it there was an awful feeling around the place of this is way to early
Exactly what I said everyone went mental but straight after I was worried bout how early on the goal was
Remember this, was on holidays in Cyprus at the time. I though Ireland did well in the first half, it looked like a shock was on the cards. France just went up a level or two in the second half and Ireland couldn’t live with them. James McLean though, what a chance that was. He never seemed to have the ability to look up before crossing a ball.
7:24 Pause it. Look at the space in between the keeper and defender. A ball in between to Murphy would have 100% been a goal. Shocking pass.
Ino McLean is highly overrated poor footballer , love his passion and rlly like him just think we have better in Connolly
Black Church And Reggae Connolly would have been 16 at time of euro 2016
To be fair to McClean none of the other irish players would have gotten into that position in the first place. He powered past the right back. Agreed end product is shocking but that's what you get with mcClean.
@@mikebassett134 Connolly isn't better than McClean or even McGeady
I like Mc Clean, he'll give u 110% everytime he stick the green jersey on. But sometimes he can be a headless chicken. No composure
Ireland are a tough little team they beat some big teams like Italy, Germany etc they punch above their weight.
Aw how I miss when Irish football was like this
Just imagine if Hendrick squared it back for Long ...
Imagine it could have changed Irish football history
No composure whatsoever. He had way more time than he realised. Very unreliable player..
Such a shame Ireland are terribly inconsistent in qualifying. Us Irish are easily among the best fans in the world.
Arrogant much 😂

Remember two years later France were World Champions
I was there behind the goals. The fans were unreal.
That was a stroll down amnesia lane lol
Best 45 mins of all time
Antoine Griezmann is a genius
How annoying is Tony O' Donoghue's attitude in the Coleman interview?? "Congratulations"?? They lost!! As if Seamus was gonna be there with a big smile on his face!
Pity the players had barely no break between this and Italy match.. legs were gone in 2nd half
France had seven days break. That's what happens when you rig the tournament in your favour
Duffy my favourite player he gives everything on the pitch
RIP the Irish Guy
0-1 Robbie Brady (2 min (PK))
1-1 Antoine Griezmann (58 min)
2-1 Antoine Griezmann (61 min)
Imagine we won this then faced Iceland which we could’ve beaten then Germany in the semis who we already bet in the qualifiers so who’s to say we couldn’t do it again then Portugal in the final who I honestly think we had a good chance of beating on our day
Im not even Irish. But living in a world where Ireland are European champions sounds like an awesome world
Back when Grezman was actually good
Wow
He's back

@@egotthejuic3403 And this one in 2022 - he's been superb...

Wish Barcelona Griezmann was playing

Ireland showed alot of character but the French quality came through
Too bad our Irish team now is absolutely pathetic and can’t win even against the worst of teams
I'm English and I was supporting Ireland because I drew them in the sweepstake
I'm an England fan and I did a sweepstake at school for Euro 2016 and I got Belgium so I was upset when they got beat by Wales but I was secretly happy cause I want Home Nations to do well

If you guys somehow held on and got past France I could honestly have seen you guys going all the way.

Honest to god when Brady put that ball in the net. We were going to be european champions

Great ireland performance

many chances
This was the day i started to dislike griezmann
He’s a plank
