Gerard Boyd:, external Atrocious penalty decision. Bosnia a better team technically but lack a goal scorer.

"It is as though the Bosnian player did not expect the ball would get to him. It was a fresh air shot."

Maybe, just maybe, this is going to be Ireland's night. A huge chance for Bosnia...and they mess it up. Edin Visca tees up Senad Lulic but he gets his feet in a terrible tangle on the edge of the six-yard area and a golden opportunity is wasted. Was that Bosnia's big chance?

"Bosnia have got their passing going and are trapping Ireland in their own half.

"Concentration is key for Ireland. The defenders have to stay on their feet and don't do anything stupid."

A huge roar goes up as Shane Long prepares to come on. That's Shane Long who scored the winner to defeat world champions Germany last month.

That noise you can hear? It's the sound of nails being bitten by thousands of Ireland fans. Jeers ring out each time a white shirt is on the ball. This is going to be a very long half for Ireland.

Bosnia have come flying out of the traps. Edin Visca has a shot charged down before a curling free-kick is glanced over his own bar by Ciaran Clark.

"Ireland need to keep their concentration and not do anything stupid."

Change for Bosnia at the start of the second half. On comes Everton's Muhamed Besic for Edin Cocalic. That's an attacking switch.

Fasten your seat belts. We're back under way...

Forty-five minutes from a place at Euro 2016. Will Ireland hold on? Can Bosnia force extra time? Here come the teams...

Olympic long jump gold medallist Greg Rutherford has given his view on the controversial moment of the first half.

But 20-time champion jockey AP McCoy does not care that it was a fortunate decision.

Paul Gourley:, external Talk about Bosnia being robbed here, first leg should have been called off due to fog and now a farcical penalty.

Former Republic of Ireland defender Darren O'Dea is liking what he has seen so far.

"Ireland have managed the game much better than the Bosnians. They have harried and hurried, and stopped the Bosnians playing. 

"They have been getting angrier and believing the referee has done them a disservice - he might have done. But they need to forget that. I think we will see a reaction from the Bosnians after the break."

Oh, the irony of it all. Remember the Republic being denied a place at the 2010 World Cup by Thierry Henry's handball? Well, another controversial handball has put them on the brink of a place at Euro 2016. However, there's still work to be done.
