- Looking back almost exactly 23 years to highlights of England's tough looking European Championship qualifier away to Republic of Ireland in November 1990. On a windy afternoon, David Platt gives England the lead before Tony Cascarino equalises for the home side as the match ends in an almost inevitable 1-1 draw (the second of three such scorelines in less than a year between the sides!). Includes a post-match interview with England manager Graham Taylor and some analysis from the following Saturday's edition of Saint & Greavsie.
RIP Graham Taylor
England were very lucky to be in Sweden in 1992 . The Irish had a much better goal difference than England and if England had lost in Poland a month later (Poland were leading 1-0 v England and Ireland and had Lineker not scored the Irish would have qualified on goal difference) The key moment was Ireland away to Poland the Irish were 3-1 up with 15 minutes to go Poland scoring in the 77th and 86th minutes had the Irish won that game England would not have been in Sweden Ireland would have qualified on goal difference
Neither team has the same quality of player now than they had then
The Irish had a great side back then full of brilliant technicians. Drawing against them was actually a good result because both sides were evenly matched. I remember the press hammering England for an under-par performance. Jack Chalton had them playing decent football.
England 1 England 1
The 2nd of three consecutive 1-1 draws between these two teams between June 1990 and March 1991.
I met Tony Cascarino at an event in London last week and chatted to him about that goal. Funnily enough he was a bit unsure which year it was, he thought it was 1992 (maybe a few beers had been had). Anyway, was very friendly and chatted away about what it was like behind the scenes with the squad. He said that big Jack gave Houghton a right verbal blast at the end of the match for that miss at the end (although I thought Houghton's miss in the return fixture at Wembley in March 1991 was actually worse as he had more time to pick his spot).
The reason Gazza didint get his game was because the Irish players knew him to well they would of wound him up and he would lose it lol
Republic had England's number from the 80s and 90s
Think this match was on tv on a schoolday during the day.Remember the physics teacher turning on the tv just as the republic scored.I knew its was going to be downhill from italia 90 from that point on.
Great equaliser from Anthony
RIP Jack Charlton

Great game and fantastic atmosphere !
Ah Jesus I was cycling up the hill home from school taught we lost some one roared out of a car cascarino scored I peddled home like a lunatic to see the goal great days 💥🇨🇮😬👍
hi, have you got the full version of saint and greavsie available to upload?
Back when Lansdowne had a bit of atmosphere.
Good ole Cascarino's 'barnett' to the rescue, but great Staunton pass and Greavsie was right about that Platt goal! 3-4 players did the job there tbf
Leaving a player like paul gascoigne out of a massive game like this would be unthinkable now
