    Mike Gardner: Mila should have been sent off there. Slight touch to the face and goes down like he's been shot. Disgrace.

    He certainly has Sarah. I'd be surprised if he can turn it on like a tap though. 'Go out there and smash one in from 25 yards, will you Harry?'

    Sarah Murphy: Bring Harry Arter on for ROI. He's scored a couple of scorching goals for Bournemouth over the last couple of weeks.

    James McClean has made a real difference since coming on but his latest delivery is horrible, straight out of play.

    Ireland have less than five minutes to find an equaliser. Poland looking good for a place in France next summer.

    "Great tackle by James McClean. Thankfully Milik got up and carried on! Wow - didn't know your foot could get in that position."

    James McCarthy slaps Polish sub Sebastian Mila off the ball - that should be a red card but the referee books both men. He got away with one there.

  7. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:28 British Summer Time 29 March 2015

    Shane Long is now on, for Glenn Whelan. Is it too late?

  8. CLOSE!published at 21:27 British Summer Time 29 March 2015

    That was the chance! James McClean with another fine ball in, it hits the heels of Robbie Keane and he then leaves it for Seamus Coleman, arriving like a train, Coleman blazes it wide though! Hit it hard as you like, but it was wild.

    James McClean does well again, excellent delivery from out wide. Nobody there again.

    Noel Fitzpatrick: Get Long on for Walters.

    A leg breaker, or a rallying cry? That challenge from James McClean certainly divides opinion. He almost divided Arkadiusz Milik.

    Robbie Keane wriggles down the left and cuts it back, but Wes Hoolahan's effort is blocked. Still no further changes for Ireland. Get some forwards on!

    Leo Nally: That was that a horrible tackle by McClean. Could have broken his leg.

    Dylan Sweeney: Great passion by McClean!

    Shay McEvoy: Got to admire McClean's commitment - hopefully that'll inspire the rest of the players.

    Fifteen minutes to go. Ireland arguably deserve an equaliser for their dominance in the second half but can they force one home?

  14. Postpublished at 21:18 British Summer Time 29 March 2015

    That was very close for Robbie Keane and for Ireland. Poland have been a shadow of their former selves in this half, but how much of that is down to Ireland?

    James McClean then crunches Arkadiusz Milik in the middle. Good grief. John McClane would be pleased with that.

  15. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 21:16 British Summer Time 29 March 2015

    James McClean's introduction almost conjures a goal! He beats his man and puts in a magic cross, Robbie Keane gets the header in and a combination of Lukasz Fabianski and the post keep it out!

    Almost goal number 66...

    Conor McCrory: Robbie Brady has been working hard to make up for his mistake which led to the Polish goal, but why is he running at men and putting balls in the box instead of McCarthy or Hoolahan?

    Sunday World journalist Kevin Palmer:, external Is McGeady meant to be a winger, a midfielder or what? Looks like he's doing an audition for Riverdance every time he gets a pass.

    It's a gutsy second-half showing from Ireland but have they got the quality to make it count? Seamus Coleman does well again to beat his man and find Jon Walters but he can only steer a header on goal. Tame.

    Daryl Murphy remains on the bench. Scoring goals for fun for Ipswich.

    Panic stations in the Polish defence almost leads to the ball falling for Robbie Keane before Wes Hoolahan slams a shot well wide. Here is a change, and it's out wide. Aiden McGeady hauled off, James McClean on.

  20. Get involvedpublished at 21:10 British Summer Time 29 March 2015

    Ant Killeen: Way too one dimensional. Get Long on to partner Keane - we need more pace going forward. Brady's deliveries have been poor tonight, Grandma could put in a better free kick.

    Mark: Brady has been shocking this evening!

    James Marshall: Rep of Ireland dying in the group of death. Goal required to bring them back to life.
