Yes, on both counts. The French goal was deflected in Dublin....probably would have ended 0-0 otherwise.

Duff's miss I remember more than the handball.....that goes in and we would have qualified comfortably.

Did the French not deserve the win in Dublin? I always though the 1-0 was fair given the play.

We should have won 2-0 away.

I was at that match and didn't realise there was a handball until French fans were apologising to us on the train back into town afterwards! The reaction in the weeks after were embarrassing. The 33rd team ffs

was there in paris 09 and what a way to celebrate the 10 year anniversary tonight Sleepy tonight proved that living through the ultimate heartreak battle hardens one for anything.  Fridays draw will reveal all. If a home final then being optimistic we should fancy our chances  At least a play off will put at end to this “if you’d have given me X points after X games I would have taken it” crap. At the end of the day we’re a play off team and if we can’t beat the Slovaks in last chance saloon we deserve to be nowhere near the euros - and that’s just being honest.

Always thought it was Long for some reason, have never watched the game back.
