I had to laugh at the English TV twats who were slagging off the "naivety" of the Irish in going for the second goal with only seconds remaining on the clock. They were trying to make out that any sensible players would have just run the ball into the corner in order to play out time. They clearly don't realise that that 2nd goal could be crucial in deciding whether NI get to the last 16 or go home. Not many teams have won a game by more than one goal. That extra goal could make a huge difference if it goes down to goal difference.

or the fact that a large number of goals have been scored in the last few minutes and therefore if you have a slender lead you might as well push for a second.
