Croatia deflate Irish spirits


Republic of Ireland 1-3 Croatia

Two goals early in each half
Concentration a deciding factor
Mandzukic and Given struck two
Memorable first from Sean St Ledger

Calls for offside disproved by a replay
Clinical by the Toffee Jelavic
Ball played by Stephen Ward
Happy man that Slaven Bilic

Trap has to shuffle the pack
Add some throttle to the cruise ship
Change of plan for the Emerald Isles
Its time to play further up the green strip
