Grassmarket 2,715 Posted July 18, 2020 #363 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Hmm. Obviously popular in Ireland....but I’d nominate IRE 0 NOR 0 in USA 94 as the single worst World Cup game ever played - including West Germany - Austria in 1982. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,569 Posted July 18, 2020 #364 Share Posted July 18, 2020 It seems like Charlton blamed Sheedy for a poor pass that eventually had Aldridge losing the ball? And Townsend (#13) really should have cancelled that play with a foul on Baggio long before Bonner had a chance to even make a save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlton’s method was always bang it forward at every opportunity & don’t bother with midfield. Obviously it didn’t always work against good players.

It's been years since I watched this but I remember one of these games was particulary boring, probably the 1988 Euro tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was called long-ball theory. Thankfully short-lived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
