Ireland Must Be Celebrating!

With France's loss to Mexico today they have a VERY slim chance of getting through the group stages now. Even if the Uruguay vs Mexico game is not a draw they have to win by a considerable margin. Justice, you could say?

Lol I knew there were problems in the France team (few fallouts etc) but honestly WOW at how poor they performed tonight.

They showed no desire to win, hell it looked like they couldn't even be bothered playing - IT'S THE WORLD CUP - DAMN lol. Some of the best players in the world and they were just awful.

The manager should have brought Cisse or Henry on but to be honest it wouldn't have made much difference, Mexico played well and certainly deserved the win.

Also yeah, I'm from Northern Ireland and the Irish are very happy to say the least

I really don't know how Dominech has stayed in the job as long as he has.

I know he brought them to the World Cup final last time round, but they were turgid getting there and relied heavily on Zidane and a flash of genius from Ribery.

That aside, he has taken the most talented players the French have produced for an awfully long time, and not just under achieved with them ... but actually turned them into a awful team.

They struggled to qualify for the last World Cup, had even more problems this time round and looked terrible in the last Euros ... and yet he keeps his job.

I've got no love for the French, but I find it incredibly frustrating when a coach is given so many good players, but refuses to use them properly because their stars signs are compatible with each other!
