Ken returns from Copenhagen impressed by the city’s sophistication and liveability and slightly taken aback by the rumbustious temperament of its people.

We reflect on Ireland’s performance in the 0-0. Was this anti-football taken to the Nth degree? Or do we need to recognise the often-unseen effort and tenacity that goes into a result like that?

 

Which Laudrup was the best? Brian, Michael, or father Finn?

Martin O’Neill was channelling the great Dave Allen in his press conference today. Between the laughs, we’ll hear some of the Ireland manager’s thoughts on tomorrow’s decisive match.

We also hear from Danish journalist Kian Fonoudi on how the Danes felt after Saturday’s draw. Meanwhile Michael O’Neill looked desolate last night after Northern Ireland were knocked out of the World Cup by Switzerland. On the plus side, the NI boss is hot stuff in the international jobs market.
