Irish Soccer Team - 1994 World Cup


The World Cup USA 1994 was a case of heating on and off the field. The oppressive heat had all the Irish team running for refreshments during the game does nothing halfway, and much more including Stan Staunton had turned beet color.

The Irish had only qualified for the finals after a late goal from Alan McLaughlin against Northern Ireland at Windsor park The best match was probably an oversight by sectarian atmosphere, carried out by Marie Jones' A Night in November. But Ireland marched to a 1-1 draw after the fact that Denmark plays Spain in the evening.

US-94 is a mixed tournament on and off the field for Ireland and we can say that this was the case for football in general. He saw the disappearance of one of the legends of football Diego Maradona. He was home in the absence of a drug test would be the last time we would see the maestro of Argentina on the world stage will be sent. Much larger scale was the fate of a Colombian defender Escobar. Colombia, which was a dark horse all the way to go in the tournament had taken loose were beaten in the group stage. Escobar had scored a goal against his opposition to the United States, a match they lost 2-1. Unfortunately, he paid for it later with his life for ten days, when he shot himself outside a pub in a suburb of Medellin, Colombia.

Ireland was founded in a group with Italy, Mexico and Norway. Their first game was against Italy in their winner four years ago. At Giants Stadium in the consumer market Irish team, providing its first victory in the final of the World Cup. Another memorable day that Ray Houghton, a poor header from Franco Baresi chests, presents his feet and swings a left-foot shot over Gianluca Pagliuca loops and dips under the bar and into the net. The goal celebration and said a determination has allowed the Irish to remain quietly on the Italians and take the victory with a draw.

Later that day, the Irish fans and players to learn the facts at home that would overshadow this great opportunity. Loyalist paramilitaries had seen a pub full of people who came into Ireland Italy Match Loughinisland observe spraying the pub with bullets and killing six people turn a football game. Players and fans were devastated, because it marks a further weakness in Irish history and has one other atrocities to the long list, led by both parties.

However, soccer and continue to the next match for Ireland was missing against Mexico, a good team that no style is also characterized by their flamboyant goalie Campos. His jersey should not even designed by the fact that he was one of the best goalkeepers in this moment be distracted. It was always a hard-fought match with two contrasting styles, unfortunately, Ireland has lost this time, falling to a 2-1 defeat. The game will be remembered more explosions to the Bank, confusion and even a John Aldridge is late as a substitute, led to rants and talks with officials from ESG. The next is that Aldridge and finally received the Jack Charlton and was suspended from the pond for their next match against Norway.

Norway game proved to be a tedious work. Both teams are missing their targets page, and they both played a similar style, it was inevitable that they disappear. The game ended nil-nil, but the results went in the other game as Mexico instead of Italy a draw all. With each team finishing on four points, Ireland managed to the second round because the main purpose of John Aldridge handed defeat to Mexico.

The second round saw the series against the Dutch. The fourth July is the date and the creation of Orlando. He has been in place for another remarkable story when Germany is playing a team in the Netherlands prospect gloomy in the mighty Brazilians in the quarterfinals, the water was in his mouth. However, since most plans put a good end to the hopes of the Irish team. A couple of defensive errors proved costly as Denis Bergkamp, the Dutch sent on their way with 11 minutes on the clock and it got worse on 41 minutes when a shot attempt of the benign and hopes were by Jonk Packie Bonner dug in the back of the net. Unfortunately, it would be the end of an era, we would not see a lot of great Irish players will play again on the world stage, including incredible Roy Keane. It was also the last tournament Jack Charlton has direct us.
