@jmg1311 I think you'll find it's pronounced Baaaaaaaaaaggio by the commentators. He was the little Italian guy that kept trying to get near Paul McGraths ball, Paul wouldn't let him play but let him have his jersey after the game cos he's such a nice guy.
I actually think one of the commentators thinks England were playing Italy. You would think he would at least be able to pronounce the name Baggio. What on earth is Bawhgio ? Dreadful stuff...
head ball ha ha.prime minister of Ireland?check out the ray houghton goal,they even say england by accident at one stage.stick to hockey! comparing a shit hockey game to this3:25,two fucking lemons.compare it to george hamiltons commentary,legend
I watched this game in a pub in Galway with my Dad when I was 8 years old. Great memories. I was too young then to appreciate what a heroic performance Paul McGrath put in that day for the team but this video shows what a magnificent effort it was. What a legend.
Paul McGrath demonstrated his world-class status during that game. What a performance and a well deserved win for the Irish. The Italians were very lucky they didn't go down
@wantadrinkadagla It was close though, the Italians could have had their 1st down and 10 inside the Irish redzone and got their touchdown only for McGraths interception. Commentators didn't pay much attention to the other 400 times in that game he pissed all over the supposedly best attack force in the world.
what time was the McAteer Baggio nutmeg at?

all american commentary, especially with football (soccer) is biased. You learn to deal with it after a while, see through it.

Paul Mc Grath was the greatest ever Irish player - Don't ever let them tell you Roy Keane was, he could'nt lace McGrath's boots
