DWS assignment 3

Ireland’s road to the Euros

It has been a long and far from boring journey for the Boys in Green as they fought for their ticket to France. Ireland did not start their Euro 2016 campaign with high hopes. The Republic of Ireland was drawn in a group with world champions Germany and rivals Scotland, and with a team that played far from inspiring. After a strong start, 8 points from 4 matches, the Boys in Green got into a difficult couple of months: two draws following a defeat against Scotland. Irish supporters were looking to spend another summer on the couch. O’Neil, manager of the Republic of Ireland, needed to think of something new. Even after a 4-0 win against Gibraltar, fans still did not get their hopes up. That all changed when the German team came to Dublin. On October 8, 2015 something happened no one ever thought would have been possible: Ireland defeated world champions Germany with a 1-0 win. A thrilling couple of weeks followed to the play offs which would give them a ticket to France. It was not until the very last game, on November 15 2015 against Bosnia & Herzegovina, Ireland managed to secure their place in the group stage in France. Umbro proudly presents the shirt the Boys in Green will be wearing at the European Championships in France.

Reflection

In my blog I want to show the experience of what fans go through when they see their team play. It shows how important a silly game can be for an entire nation.
